Has anybody removed their catalytic converter? If so, did you feel a power increase? Noise increase? Anything? Thanks

I'd imagine there would be a pretty big noise increase.

Today's cat. converters are high flow types.  Taking them off will not give you an increase in power.  The noise will go up though.

I can't imagine that removing the cat will do your computer any good. These modern vehicles are picky as it is. And you will certainly fail an emissions check if your area is so inclined to have them.
