Enviormental Science Analysis : Have you removed your catalytic converters?

[4get2]

I am conducting an enviormental science poll to see how many people removed their catalytic convertors. This is a project for my enviormental science class, your response is appreciated!

 

[tstkl]

what about for those of us that still have emissions that they need to pass, can we just say we would if our car wouldnt get a ticket every time it was on the road without one?

Well, since you're asking dsmers, this survery is not going to do a very good job of representing the general population.

 

[Spoolin4Ever]

How much do you gain by removing them?

 

[kikkinbac]

what if you haven't yet but plan on it how should you answer?

 

[igopoopy]

How much do you gain by removing them?

about 5 hp from taking it out

 

[Defiant]

Fascinating topic.

Oh, what kind of convertors do these run? And how many gallons per hour do they burn?

With or without cataclysmic diverters, modern gasoline engines don't matter to the planet.

i say modify the forum and add an extra option for you havent removed it but you plan to

aka me.

Leave it to Guy to bring out the Big Ugly Fat ####er. Those used to take off right next to my house, quite loud, quite smoky. You could watch them take off from 10 miles away, just by following the smoke trail.

I took mine off the day I purchased the car. We #### up the planet in so many other ways, my catalytic convertor is not going to save it.

I Switched to a high-flow cat so I could still pass emissions, and I didn't have to swap it out since I have emissions every year.

 

[90blacktsiawd]

I have both a high flow cat and a test pipe. I only swap in the cat when it's time for emissions. Or when i get a bad case of boost creep .

 

[olmytsi]

No cat here.

 

[XdsmdemonXRS]

No Cat here here either....and so far my area here in ohio has no emissions....and i hope it stays that way !!!

 

[yunior]

thank god for no emissions testing in fl. I also took it off mine full apex n1 down pipe !
