The original cat on my 1988T is starting to go, at least that's what my mechanic says. The car makes a slight growl on acceleration which I actually don't mind because it is a little throaty. However I am only just boosting into the red and based on other posts I am wondering if the cat is the culprit? (base boost has been confirmed). I am reluctant to just yard the orig cat off this car as I have read here that they are well made and stainless and very expensive to replace with factory original. My mechanic says he can slip a small resonator in there no problem to keep it quiet. Passing emmisions is not an issue in Canada (YET) Whats the best thing to do?
