I just came back from thr damm mechanic, he told me I need a new cadillict converter. costing me $500 dollars. I told im if i could just take out the whole damm converter and he told me he would do it for $150 dollars. So now I have to go tomorrow and miss the meet. Sorry! Have any of you guys ever had a car without a converter?

Have any of you guys ever had a car without a converter?thats illegal if he does it... shops are not suppose to take off cats and replace it with nothing. the shop can get into a lot of trouble for doing that

any shop replacing a cat must fill out a federal form stating WHY they had to replace it. if they are not it says they are a shady shop and I wouldn't trust them with my car...
