Question Catalytic question

I now own a 97 F350, 7.3 psd crew with 270,000 km's. I belive the catalytic to be original, I have no way to know for sure. If I remove it and put in a straight piece of pipe will I do any harm to the engine or turbo. Will I see any increase in performance or fuel economy. Thanks in advance for all replys.

Catalytic question

Shouldn't do any harm and will give you more performance...doubtful on the fuel economy it being a psd and all.

My suggestion...for what it's worth; do the whole system go with the 4" duals!
