3rd Cat
Hey everyone,
Has anyone decieded to cut their third cat and replace it with a resonator?
The reason I ask is because of the known debris the 3rd cat collects.
I am thinking about cutting it and doing something different with my exhaust.
The car already has a tanabe medallion exhuast, anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks

I think you're confusing the 3rd cat for the stock resonators.

According to Title II of the EPA Clean Air Act (Enacted Jan 1 1988) there are multiple regulations concerning the use or misuse of aftermarket catalytic converters, or the removal and/or modification of a stock catalytic converter. According to various parts of Section 203, all aftermarket catalytic converters must be EPA certified, and your car must have a gas conversion device of some manner. If not, both you and the installer are punishable of a Federal Offense by Section 205 (a). The operator's fine can be no more than $2,500 and the installation agency no more than $25,000.
