truth is u gain nothin from a catalytic converter but unless u get a really good one (which i havent found) it'll restrict the air flow which makes u lose power, if u take it out, ur def not gonna pass emisions but u'll get better air flow.. and its true cus we did it on my buddys maxima better wit out it but hes got no problems on passin emisions

boost fixes it all
