i know what it does...
it's illegal, immoral, and hazardous

without a cat, instead of NOx, CO2, and H2O, your exhaust will spew out deadly carbon monoxide gas. that's why it's illegal.

you really should just get a universal magnaflow cat (~$60) and have it welded into the exhaust, right after the header, by an exhaust shop. You'll also need an O2 sensor bung (~$1-2), and an O2 extension wire harness (~$20).

you sure you're not talking about the resonator?

if its a real cat then it should have the cat in the same location as stock.... if not its just a resonator and then the muffler after that.
