As for the midas guy, he sucks..go to another muffler shop they will remove it with no hesitation. I'm actually going back to remove my 2 cats underneath just because it's not aggressive enough for me and my muffler guy doesn't have a problem at all about removing it, it just cost a little more and that should definetly have some performance gains on that.
After doing some research from old forums on here...i understand that each car has 4 catalytic converters, and many peolpe delte/take out two of the 4.
I know a couple people that have done this to their mercedes. Sounds Beautiful. . .But all their cars are 8 cylinders... CL55, E 430, and a E 55. . .
Sounds Sickkkkkkk....I was wondering if any1 has done this to a 6 cylinder c class or a 6 cylinder mercedes. .

I also understand that You can get the cats replaced with somethging sportier sounding. .

Does any1 have knowledge on this. .??

I deleted the secondary cats on my 6 cylinder. It added some more grunt to the exhaust note, but it still isn't that loud. If I could do it again, I'd remove the secondary cats but leave the resonator in.
