Remove the catalytic convertor from the silencer ? - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

]|[ GorE · 05-01-2009, 12:55 PM

Hey,
I was wondering if it's possible to remove the catalytic converter from the exhaust of my Gladiator RS and if it's possible to put it back once removed. And,what kind of changes would i experience and would it be worth it ?

Would appreciate any help

PS : Tree huggers : Cut me some slack . I think I offset the carbon and nitrogen emissions via other means...by farting less !

The reason i want it to be temporary is so that the bike can pass the Pollution Under Control tests.

Lots of cutting , chopping, drilling and welding will be involved !!
Its better to preserve the original exhaust for warrenty purposes and get a separate free flow done !!

Any idea if AutoMech, HRC or others can do it just by knowing the bike model? I won't be visiting Delhi/Bangy anytime soon.
