Polluters!! Well, imagine sending this kind of email to the drag racing
mailing group.:) It is a personal thing whether you are fine driving your
car with cat or not. High-flow cat will give me similar performances to the
test pipe and still keep me to be "clean". And I bet that most of the well
maintained and modified cars will pass smog test regardless of having a cat
or not. Also, if I am more on the "green" side, than I can always change my
cat while changing my tires before even. It is only 4 bolts :)

Well, I would not make any proposition based on assumption that something
might happen next year (regardless of how much you would like that to
happen).:) This is still just proposition for evil turbo cars and that does
not mean that will be accepted.
