CAT removing dangerous???

[paul james]

i want to take the CAT out of my 1.2i, after my mot of course :wink: , but ive been warned not to, apparently the cat protects the engine in some way, and removing it could damage the valves. The guy who told me knows a LOT about cars, but lots of people take the cats off so whats the truth?

[jatinder]

er the word bollocks comes to mind
removing the cat will have no harm whatsoever

im in the same boat, ive been told to put on a 1.4 sri outlet manifold and down pipe and a gte front pipe to de-cat it!
