My mate with a R34 GTR has a catless set up. His pretty much running a straight pipe from the dump.

Who did he get to install it? I can't find a workshop that will do it because apparently there are big fines involved..

Is your cat in the mid section?
I'm sure we can find a place that can make a cat delete pipe with flanges so you can add/remove when u want.

Yep that's right ...
My car only had the one cat and that was in the centre of the exhaust .. I also punched the guts out of that cat which turned it into a flame throwing beast ...

It was a DIY because like you said, no workshop wanted to do it. The exhaust gives out a foul smell even at idle and spits out a lot of raw fuel. Not something you would want for a daily or a street car.. I must add, his running no muffler either so it's very very loud!

My previous car had the cat gutted and it had the deepest burble I've heard...I want it back :twisted: How would anyone know if I gutted the cat? Pretty sure mine is in the mid section, I've got a 3inch cat with 5 inch body which I could gut and swap over ;)

Remove the mid section and get a broom and smash the crap out of the catalyst with the handle...easy as..instant boost of power as well..
Noone will ever know except if you get randomly defected which you will then have to put a full standard exhaust on to pass
