restrictive catalytic converter ? hey i heard in in the lt1 z28s specifically in 1994 chevy put a more restrictive cat converter so it wouldnt have the same amount of horsepower as the corvette. it supposedly sucked the lt1 from 300 to 275. anyone know anything about this? i want to open up my exhaust on my 94 z28 so it breaths better i was thinking having two catalytic converters go into my y pipe insted of having my exhausat flow in to one supposedly resrtictive cat into my y pipe. is this true? can anyone offer me any advice on this? does this sound like a good idea? or how can i make it breath more and be less restrictive without buying all new exhaust systum? thanks

i have a really simple and cheap solution for you.
cut the cat off
remove the insides
stick a pipe in the cat
weld the cat back in to place
now you have absolutely no restriction there and it still looks like you have a cat in case you get pulled over.
