I have been rolling around on drag radials for years and love it. There are also some very sticky street tires out now that the auto-x guys know more about then me. All I know is once you start making good power and you lay into the gas and it just blazes them it gets really fucking annoying. ---

> [@turbod ss](#): > > so i could then run a catless exhaust and get away with it!! Why not just get a dp with a high flow cat, and not break the law? Do it right the first time, or don’t do it at all. ---

> [@cougarspeed](#): > > Glad you see my point. Besides you just change the readiness with hp tuners. 1.)doesn’t make it anymore legal. 2.)Doesn’t change the requirement for a visual inspection of emissions systems. Yes I’m well aware the majority of techs don’t check, but that doesn’t really matter does it? I’ll bet you a bottle of bourbon that he is never going to miss the 150 rpm of lag or the 3whp he might lose to a hi flow cat. ---

Bed? I get up at 5am every day brah. Anyhow the choice should be his. I can say as long as I can change readiness I will never run cats on a project car that I am going to race in any way shape or form. But thats just me. I break enough laws to not feel bad about it LOL. But I do have to go back to work. ☹ ---
