Hay everyone,


I was windering how many people have removed their Catalytic Converters. If you have was there any negative affects of doing so. I am a little concerend about not haveing anough back pressure once it is removed. Here is my plan. I want to buy the Banks Monster axhaust system. They have a part called the Federal ( I think) that goes in place of the Cat. This is for "Offroad Use Only". What I like about it is that I can just bolt that Cat. back in place if needed. A rep at Banks told me that it would take maybe a half an hour to pop out the Federal and put back in the Cat. (you know for when I go back on the highway) http://dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Wink.gif. Anyway, if anyone has done this I would appreciate some feedback. I talked to the dealership and they said to just make sure I keep all the stock parts so they could be put back on just incase of potential waranty issues.


Thanks,


Mike

I did exactly what you want to do. Works great, sounds great.

Me too... I put the "federal" Banks kit on my Cali dmax...the only trick to dropping the cat out is to unbolt the exhaust hanger that hold the cat up (it's bolted to the transfer case)...I changed my entire exhaust (on the ground) in less than an hour without cutting the factory pipe.
