exhaust

[zues]

I am wondering if taking out a catalytic converter will make the exhaust louder. Does it make much difference. My buddy has a 305 hp with no catalytic converter and seems not much louder. Is it a waste of time and money to remove the catalytic converter.

You should remember, like on your car... . you have 2 issues to deal with... . 1 - Federal emmission standards now require that to be on your truck... . here in my state if you pull in for your bi-annual emmission test and its not there or not functioning, you have to repair/replace it to get your new tags..... 2 - some engines are designed to run with the back pressure created by the cat... .



Hope that helps... .
