Actually cat convertors do some pretty cool stuff to teh cancer causing shit pumped out due to all the extra nasty shit they needed to put in the fuel to make it catch fire remotely as good as super did

thats what i meant... cat convertors are good for the whales...
its like that charcoal canister in my engine bay... i'm not 100% sure what it does or how it does it, but i know it does something good for the environment...
I looked it up once... it told me.. i thought "thats cool" then promptly forgot it

cat converters are good for people not getting cancer
charcoal canisters stops fuel vapour getting out of the tank to pass stationary emissions, did you know some jap cars originally didnt past the same tests (ADR 27/A) due to the gasses coming off the dashboard plastics once it as all heated up
