Subaru catalytic converter delete

[@saltycanadian6190]

Tip for all the guys who are new top cars, if you don’t have the 1000’s of dollars in tools this guy does. Just loosen the cat back portion, and use a 2” bore drill to take out the cat. Leave the exhaust unhooked, start the car to clear the pipe, and you’re solid.

Great idea I did with up pipe in Subaru

[@user-oz3kt8mw2j]

Great job. Subaru’s cats are pain in the ass.

[@mushenji]

This is the best job ever. Total removal of all cats. Straight through pipe forever.

[@jaime_fxt1108]

good video, I'm going to do this with my forester, the check engine doesn't matter because here from 2005 onwards they pass with the check engine

[@giftgiver]

I bet this car gained like 10hp!!! Love, its what makes a Subaru, a Suby! 🏎️

[@giftgiver]

Bout to do the same damn thing to my wrx with magnaflow muffler

[@pai765]

Do you tune it after a cat delete?

[@kwinn04]

Did this affect your o2 sensors? Did your check engine light come on?

[@legendofthestrings1]

The light came on and keeps bouncing back and forth with p0160 and p0138. Didn't do this before the cat went recently.

[@TJNightTrain]

This is crazy. Your car will light up like a pin ball machine.

like christmas eve

[@KyLaP0rte]

Yes, this will cause the down stream O2 sensor to throw a code. But, dumby sensors are available to trick the PCM into thinking the Catalyst is still there and functioning.

@@KyLaP0rte Where do I get dummy sensors man??

[@Crestone-saju]

2013 Impreza I’ve done same and took the manifold cat delete and straight pipe with nameless exhaust. Now car is extremely loud 😮 is it best to put back just back side cat back on to reduce the sound? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[@mikemcleod7816]

Since you removed the guts and everything that was holding the heat, was the heat shielding necessary? Any chance you checked the temperature of the pipe after installation?

[@lastchanceshop]

I put back just so look like original

[@efrenmaldonado9651]

Did the horsepower increased after deleting the catalytic, and did the gas consumption got better?

[@takumif7056]

Did you ever get the answers to these questions?

[@richardlawrence1835]

What about the fault code on the engine check light

[@ddsiow5298]

modify the o2 sensor...you can find another youtube

[@dumper87]

Very informative. There’s no way in hell I’m paying for new cats on my 15 year old Outback. How’s the noise level after gutting?

[@lastchanceshop]

Sounds more deeper and more response

[@kasparabel5025]

Did you get it reprogrammed as well ?

[@kcube2548]

@@kasparabel5025 good question

[@Boom-ou1vb]

@@kasparabel5025 No reason to reprogram it if it's naturally aspirated. If you are curious about the check engine light you can get a 90 degree elbow that moves the O2 sensor out of the path of the exhaust fooling the computer into thinking you have a cat. Car will run perfectly fine after that with no engine light. Done it on a VW and a Subaru with the same result. Those little elbows need enough room to fit but they are inexpensive.

[@takumif7056]

@@Boom-ou1vbCould you link a video on how that is done perhaps?

[@allanherrera9549]

How you can pass emission?

[@lastchanceshop]

Depends on the state you live in

[@ajmartschinske6312]

You don’t pass emissions 😂😂😂 like did you really ask that ? lmao

[@nicholaslopez4170]

Move to Florida lol

You don't! This is for performance and sound only.. 👍🏼

[@nigeldalziel7088]

dummy sensors.

[@legendofthestrings1]

I did something simulare with my 2010 forester. The rear cat was bad and I banged it out with a rod so it's streight through now. But I get a P138 code now and the check engine lite keeps coming on. Is there a trick to keep that from happening?

[@lastchanceshop]

There is a O2 sensor extension pipe you can find it on the eBay or Amazon I recommend get that one with the curve with 90 degree elbow. And this "modification" it's for off-road use only
