Most everything I own/drive wasn’t even factory equipped with cats. I’m still here. ---

i drove from Florida to buffalo with a big hole in my flex pipe and a quarter sized hole in the exhaust directly under the driver’s seat. never once had a problem. the only time it gets kinda nasty is if i’m sitting somewhere with minimal airflow with the engine running, like in a drive thru, a hot day in a parking lot, etc. i smell the fumes a bit but nothing that’d kill me i wouldn’t even blink an eye, who cares [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/no-cat-and-carbon-monoxide/153095.md?page=1)
