save yourself a huge fine and damage to your car and fit a cat.

ALOT! , But i bashed out my cat :P hhehe

Most things I've seen say you actaully loose horespower doing that. De-cat pipe> high flow cat> regular cat> gutted cat when horspower is the determining factor.

fine in SA is a max of 10k. but they can only test you if you go for an inspection. the cops cant look under and assume because they cant see it then it's not there.

only EPA can fine you and they must perform emissions testing to prove.

plus if ur silly enough to go for an inspection without a cat then u deserve a fine...

Yet in NSW the EPA does random road side inspections...

And they will slap you with a 10K fine in NSW if found on the road like it.

some cannons have materials in there for sound dampening etc, if its getting too hot, then they could catch fire and this could be the ashes you see.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.

      It's all about the socialisation of the dogs. In that first 8 to 16 weeks of age they need to be taught to be nice and friendly with everything. That way they generalise it to everything. That said, some days you'll just never beat genetics, but 99% of the time dogs chasing cats is purely lack of socialisation, and then the chasing part can turn into prey drive.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      I bench bled my HFM BM57 before installing, it leaked badly. Threw it in the bin, because I installed it 2 years after purchase.
