Any reason to hold onto my F3-T's Catalytic Converter? Any idea of re-cycling value?

[seagravesg]

Removed the catalytic converter some time ago because of heat it was generating. Happy with cat delete (with baffle in). Couple of questions regarding the old converter:
>>Any reason to hold on to cc from 2020 F3-T; no extended warranty in effect, any chance needed upon sale or trade-in?
>>Found a metals recycle outfit in the area. Any idea of the value?

Ps: I talked to the recycling firm and I couldn't find the numbers they need to define cost. Said I need to bring it by.

ALWAYS keep any smog stuff you remove from a vehicle, as at some point you might be required to reinstall it.

And it can be really expensive to replace.

If you ever decide to trade it in with a dealer, they may require that it be re installed!

Agree with above, don’t bother with bringing by recycling place, might do more than waste time (I have had too many flat tires related to visiting those sorts of places!)

Thefts are also common around those places. The crooks know who you are and keep track of you via cell phones.

Keep it!

MY 2017 F3T PB1 from PITBULL came with the Cat Delete Pipe dealer installed.
I never saw the converter.

I know quite a few people who are in a similar situation, and apart from hearing from one guy (in Singapore, I think) who was required to replace his Cat Converter to get his 'new to him' Spyder (that he purchased with a Cat Eliminator installed) before he could register that Spyder there, I've never personally seen or even heard here on the boards of anyone else who has actually needed/been required to replace their Cat Converter once it'd been removed either?!

So I reckon you'd be pretty unlucky to find that you had to replace one once removed; or if you do ever need to replace it for any legally mandated reason, then you probably live somewhere where that sort of thing is fairly common anyway (like Singapore??) and you really should've known/found that out that before taking it off in the first place, shouldn't you??
