how to gut out cats/muffler?
as the title says, im contemplating it. after 15 mins of driving the car idled on that hot day a few days back like poo and felt a few horses run away when driving. not to mention how quiet the car was, our minivan is louder!

A gutted cat will give you this weird hollow ringing tone. Just replace it. But if you're set on gutting it, remove it and hammer a long flat head through it, and finish it off with a long prybar.
Don't gut the muffler. lol

But ultimately you're right, which I said if it's clogged to just replace it.
I gutted the cat on my old camaro and it sounded like ***.

Next time you take the car for a drive, park it and quickly look at the cat. If the cat is red, it's either restricted or the engine is running rich.

I thought he was talking about horses, why did you bring cats into the discussion?

Why would you need tune a car becaused you removed something that cleans your exhaust?

[quote=Failed Devices;633829] You are better off with a whole new setup, longtubes, ory and catback. [quote]
WTH is ory? I'm contemplating a new exhaust but want to keep the cat as it is required to pass inspection. Long tube headers, I assume, let you keep the cat and then a nice catback system to go along with it, but wnat is thr "ory"?
