Default Gutted Cat

I did some work on my truck today. The cat was clogged and robbing my gas mileage and power so I decided to perform some surgery.
1st: I started out trying to fit my truck in the garage, it was just barley able to fit in.

2nd: I used a saw to cut it open, I cut a line across and two going up So I could pry it open like a door.

3rd: I took a screw drivier and knocked away all the internals of the cat. (if you do it, wear a mask so you don't get sick) The cat on the ram was alot bigger and this is all that came out..


4th: I bent it back into shape and welded it back up, then cut a sheild and put it on there to simulate and trick people into thinking it wasn't messed with.

5th: Started it up and blew all the crap out my nice loud side exhaust.
