I don't work on feelings, I'm an engineer. I only care about facts and reality. Those who remove cats are going to be the ones working with bias and feelings on this subject. But you can do research and know the truth if you want to.
Forgot about the EV’s not using brakes as much. So I guess that right there definitely helps tremendously with the brake dust emissions. Not sure what you mean by doing research about removing cats. I said in a different post I agree with keeping them on EXCEPT for the less than 1% of modded cars that make too much power and need them removed in order to prevent engine damage due to the cats getting clogged. I also doubt folks daily their 700+ whp cars.
