My car runs well and is fast but puts out some black smoke on hard load (or medium load when shifting). I know I have to be putting out some terrible emissions (not here to debate your care for the environment, or liberal politics). I would like to reduce emissions, but I don't want to hurt my performance or decrease my engine life. I feel like an EGR and PCV system must be removed for the sake of not gumming up my engine. I removed my catalytic converter to increase performance. I have found a 50CPSI catalytic converter online, seems to be the highest flow converter available. Will this actually reduce emissions, or is it nothing more than a way for people to skirt emissions laws because they technically have a catalytic converter? Does it actually convert the carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide and water? Does it do anything at all, or just add some back pressure, and look like I have a catalytic converter from the outside?
Current set up:
GTB2260VKLR turbo
Bosio PowerPlus 1043 nozzles
PD150 intake manifold, w/Race Pipe EGR and ASV delete
3" downpipe and straight pipe exhaust, no cat, no muffler
Stock PCV, but need to remove it, considering a catch can.
