You definitly need a cat or something to provide some back pressure. You probably don't any low end torque at all. Also did you install mil eliminators? You need to or your car is going to start running really rich.

Zach is right on. You need more back pressure on a stock engine and a mil elim if you remove your cats. You can go catless, but you need mufflers, smaller dia. piping and a mil elim.
.....or a totally built engine. [sm=smiley20.gif]
