Re: test pipe or no??

You will probably lose gas mileage and lose low end torque.A non-pellet type converter isnt very restrictive anyway.Disconnect the pipe behind the converter,and listen to how loud it is.The converter contributes little to restriction/flow/baffling of the exhaust.

If for whatever reason they check the exhaust and find no cat you'll be out of a car
