^good idea, also the scrap metal value of cat converters in my country is substantial, definitely worth swapping for a straight pipe

Just a quick reminder.  A straight pipe is only legal for an off road only vehicle.  You can however pick up generic high flow 2" cats off of ebay for pretty cheap.

I thought having one was required on a federal level.  If theychecked for it was on a state/province.  :D  If not, my bad.  I know Federal parks in the US require a spark arrestor of some sort, which means either a catalytic converter or a non-straight pipe style muffler (aka Cherry Bomb).

That being said, my SJ-410 doesn't run a cat.  We didn't put one one when we put a new exhaust in place.  But it's a trailer queen.
