I am just trying to sort out how to get around the rear O2 sensor on my exhaust. I pulled the cats off.

Nope. CMR dealer can. You can't. Plus you just cost yourself about 30hp at the wheels. That was the loss when we tried pulling the cats on my Heads/cam/headers Jeep SRT8. The Hemi doesn't like an open exhaust. It does like high flow cats.

I've heard both sides, with no data to back it up. I've seen data on other vehicles that shows a midrange improvement with cats removed but I have not been able to locate a dyno sheet that shows this is what happens on the SRT's

Still no codes, pulls harder on top and there is a definite difference in around town driving. Need a few shake down runs and a visit to the track. Oh and they ended up just hollowing out the stock cats since that was easier than bending the pipe to get in there.
