I'm doing a bit of research on emissions removal and the first thing that pops up is CAT removal.

I have a RB 3" DP which goes into this...(pic) is that a CAT or not...

After that the exhaust splits off into the 2.5" duals.

Am I safe for the "first stage of emission removal"
CATS/ACV/Air pump

since I have a TII I dont need the ACV for 5/6 ports but is there anything else I need it for?

is this an open cat?
bump

Travelintrevor

no..that is a racing beat presilencer..you have the full 3" full race exhaust from racing Beat..and yes you can remove emission control stuff providing you dont need it to pass emissions testing

thanks. It was on the car before I bought it so I never knew weither it was the full system or not.

How much hp does this system bump you up?

YearsOfDecay

about 50 or so with the increased boost levels you get from not having a cat on it..

Atticus

Racing Beat says you should expect a 59 HP difference from THIER turbo back system. Like YOD said it's mostly from the increased boost.

well then I have to get the car running right...

I've already fashoned up a blockoff plate for the ACV and the air pump is gone. The only thing I'm thinking of leaving on is the EGR valve. Its still functional correct?
I figure I should prevent making more pollutant gasses if I possible.
good or go??

YearsOfDecay

If you've yanked the ACV and the Air pump... you might as well yank the EGR and pitch it too..... you;ll need to either make or get a cover for it.. Taking the UIM off with make it MUCH easier to get to the damn thing.

I already have it off but making a blockoff plate will be hard with it in the position its in.
The UIM will be comming off tomorrow!
Thanks YOD
