Catalystic converter when caput.. now my rx8 has no power..

Catalystic converter when caput.. now my rx8 has no power..

I spoke with the dealership and they said it whent into backup mode.

I was thinking if i just simpy remove the cat and put in a dummy o2 sensor.

What o2 dummy sensors are there which i can use?

Is there anything else i can do about this problem (exept getting a new cat, and sensor).

Id realy like to have an open exhaust

depends on your local law if open exhaust is legal or not.

Is your car out of warranty?

Take a big drill bit and hollow that bitch out, of course. Just keep a replacement cat in your garage for inspections.
