... than does not mean that removal of the CAT is
legal.

It is illegal to remove any emissions device from your
car.  Any business that does it risks stiff penalties
from the EPA.

A good explanation of the law from Dynomax (maker of
aftermarket exhaust components)

http://www.dynomax.com/super_install.stm

Or, straight from the EPA:

http://www.epa.gov/air/caa/caa203.txt


On the dynomax page, I was surprised to see:

"The converter be installed in the same location as
the original converter. "

WOW!  That sucks.  So I guess even the currently
available kits WITH catalytic converters are illegal
too??  Maybe the EPA will give us a break with the DMC
because it has to be the worst exhaust system ever
designed.
