RE: removing out catalytic converter
you don't have to cut all ov them out- just do a cat delete. Basically .. you cut out the catalytic converter and place a straight pipe to where the catalytic converter was. Reduces a whole lot ov back pressure- you don't want to remove all of them for the reason that it may actually loose more power than actually gain. I live in sunny california so i can't mess w/my cat. so- ya. its all up to you. nJOY!

oh dear lord please dont . its a 2.2 liter camry (not a5 liter v8 mustang), will it be worth the maybe 1 hp gain to annoy everyone within a 1/2 mile of you ? Now if its bad and you looking to reduce costs of buying a new cat then i understand .

RE: removing out catalytic converter
Have a friend who removed his catalytic converter. It backfires very little and the growl is not too loud and i didn't see any problems on some toyota performance parts without it. But it is better to keep the cat, unless she is plugged up. If so replace it.

RE: removing out catalytic converter
Wouldnt it fail emissions to cut out the cat? Im havin problems I think are related to the damn thing I gotta replace it. Can I replace the whole front pipe with just a straight pipe? I have the 1994 LE 2.2, with almost no power but I just want it to run right.
