CAT REMOVAL

RichardT · #1 (**permalink**) 09-06-2012, 09:40 AM

A buddy of mine was wanting to remove his cats of off his f-150. But he was told that if he did that, that there were fuel sensors, that would radically change the running of bhis truck. will a programmer help this, or is there a way to remove the cats wihout messing up his fuel injection???

If there are O2 sensors, no, you cannot remove them. Plus if you live in an inspection/emissions state... they will fail you for inspection/emissions.

you can not take the cats off, it will throw an emmissions code, does he want to make it louder?

i think he was looking for better throttle response and fuel mpg
