DIY Decat

How would someone go about decatting an RX8?

Can you just smash through the cat?

Does anyone have instructions to do this?

Would this cause any damage to the car?

Would it cause the engine management light to turn on?

No. He said the goats were "de-bleated." So George Clooney could murder them. Poor innocent goats.
