watch for mto
 

i got pulled over by mto and given a ticket for no cat. they took my plates and said i could not drive or sell my car until the court date. the court date was 3 months after. the cop said if i plea guilty and prove to them i got the cat put on i will get the plates. otherwise if i dont they will just set another date and make me wait another three months until trial. this ruined my summer, the court date is on the 21st and i'm obviously going to plea guilty and pay the fine. hopefully i get my plates back and then i can run some of you guys.lol

Why not just put a cat on the car ....

Why not just put a cat on the car ,....but punch the guts out of it before you actually install it . And buy a cat that has a brand name and numbers on it . And install it with the numbers down so it can read with a spy mirror. Seems simple to me ..77.







Just because the salesman told your mom the car wast pretty fast when she bought it ...Doesnt mean " you " own a fast car.

i did but i still have to wait until the court date to prove that to them. i have to show a receit and plea guilty for not having a cat at the time.

Plead stupid.

you obviously get what i'm trying to say. you better watch who you're calling stupid. does calling someone stupid make you feel smart.

you obviosly didnt get what he meant buy that man he wasnt callin u stupid

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

oh my bad

what was the point of this thread? youre a fkn idiot. i guess your point came across quite nicely.

i guess i did'nt get what he was saying. my bad.

f^ck you.

You know, I still haven't figured out why people pull the cats. For the 2 hp, and 1.5ft lbs, vs a ticket, and no car? Hmm let me think for a second. :hitwithro

are you sure its only 2hp?

On a 4 cyl, yes. V8 might gain 5 to 6. And, the worst part is, most performance shops sell high flow cats, for around the same price as stock ones.

i bought a 3 inch magnaflow high flow cat. i'm looking for a aem ems so i can tune my car to have a cat. until then i cant even hit boost. and you're right it was'nt that expensive.

The 3" cat I had wouldn't let the car boost past 16psi, regardless of where I had the boost controller set. It was just restricting the exhaust so much that even with the wastegate fully shut, it wouldn't boost past that point. I punched the guts out of it, reinstalled it, and that problem was fixed.

Then I replaced the cat with a working one :D.

They have tho's now?

it probably won't work, but try to plead not guilty and show them a pic with a cat installed and say that the mto officer just didn't look in the right place and you don't know what a cat was so u couldn't prove him wrong at the time.

gtown69 wat kinda car do u drive?

civic

^ No suprise there. "rolleyes"

magazine report tested on civic stock 1.5 added 5 hp to civic lightly modded compared to shitty stock cat

my car runs rich and backfires often

backfire = melted cat

melted cat = no exhaust gases leaving

no exhaust gases leaving = blown motor

cats belong on stock cars:smilie_da

negatory

Really so why do WRC rally cars have Cats, and they seem to run fine and make power without them.
Why does Stillen have cats on their stupidly big HP cars.
Why does Hennessy still have cats on their 1000HP vipers. or Lingenfelter
need I go on.


god, this forum has to many retards.
I think 90% of the retarded street racers/ricers in Toronto come here.

w/ good tuning, there are no issues running a cat...

i have dyno runned my car with and with out good exhaust with cat and no cat nice exhaust my car isnt even close to stock but did it make a difference yes and mor ethen 2 whp so yeaa ....another thing mto look under ur ccar to see no cat or did test..?:thumbsup:
next summer im punching a cat out and putting it on ..i wont be able to live with my car gone and work ..
by the way motor getting built now blew another one so um 350 whp in hatch get ready;P:thumbsup:

its been done, its nothing special, its the furthest from original you can get, no one really cares.

The mto can tell it the cat has bin punch out or not, so don't even punch it out.

Maybe if you do a hack job of gutting it. Not if you do it properly...Visually anyways.

I have seen a car gain over 80whp by opening his exhaust dump and bypassing the cat/muffler. Same boost level. :smilie_da Needless to say his cat back was very restrictive.


Yea, what would be real original would be a jbody that is actually fast.

:nono: :banghead:

yup...cause there isnt any right? :stroke:

my stang catted lost 120+ rwhp.
Fixed the problem, punched.
It just wouldn’t build boost.

The MTO will usually use their asp and tap the cat to see if its hollow.
Really, in most cases a cat wont affect your performance to a noticeable degree.

a cat makes a huge different on a turbo car as long as you're running high boost ;p

Yeah, but he's not driving a turbo V8, with 600 wheel horsepower. I don't have to run cats at all, and there's nothing the MTO can do about it. :D

lucky you :)

Yup, that's why I drive a 1983 GTI. And in 23 minutes, I'll have a set of GSXR carbs for it. :smilie_da

can you convert those cars to EFI?

Yeah, but new wiring paired with old wiring, not so much. Dammit, got outbid with 5 secs to go.

"Yea, what would be real original would be a jbody that is actually fast."

ahahah you beet me to it...and if there is he doesnt have it ..

next summer 11 sec street car here i come....anybody test me
im gunna try for oct 14 but i doubt it ,,,,
