Hey guys, what I want to do is ditch the cat converter, then run 2.5" back from the factory Y pipe. Do a 1 in/2 out muffler, and put the tips out behind the rear tires. I told this to the exhaust shop but they said they have to leave the Cat Converter. Is that true on a 25 year old truck? It will be registered in FL like the rest of my cars, so no emissions checks or state inspections but he said that doesn't matter.

So I was just wondering if the option to remove it is there, or do I have to leave it like he says.

If so, can I have him make sure that it's placed in a section of straight pipe, then just remove it myself and clamp some straight pipe in that section.

Man I wish I had some who could teach me to weld.
