[QUOTE="MachME, post: 16351140, member: 38217"] 1. Interested to see big names on there like Magnaflow. It says primarily for selling cat deletes. Does it not directly say "for off road use only" ? How do they determine then it is a company selling the products fault? 2. As I have said many times on here, modern cars at least, you can make a ton of power through cats. Everyone forgets gt500, hellcat have over 700 HP stock with cats. All the factory turbo engines out there people are turning up boost and fuel and it is fine. To stay on this trend, there should be aftermarket cats that people can add to vehicles that will work on high HP applications. You can run a SCT tune or whatever and still pass a state OBD2 plug in inspection as long as all your emissions items are still running. Just keep the cats in... The cars I always see driving around you can smell way down the highway are 4 cylinder ricer burner cars. Why would you remove the cat when you're making 150hp? These are the real idiots. Some guys, cannot run cats due to too much boost etc. These cars are not driving every day though. These are weekend, nice weather cars. They should have a special "regulation" that does not need to meet emissions. 3. All old cars are grandfathered in, If they really crack down, car community can just go to older cars and have no emissions. 4.
