I have a 1987 Jaguar XJ6 . Without effecting the engine performance. the exhuast system is completely rusted and all needs replacing. I live in York, Pa. Do to the age of the car, do I have to re- install the catylitic converter and oxygen sensor. I can re - install the exhaust leaving them off and simplifying the install to euro . The jaguar is not emissions tested here, I'm worried obout the engine performace if I delete them. Help Please !
Thanks !
