Default Metal Cat

Looking for an aftermarket cat and found this. http://www.metalcat.com.au/. My question is if they are euro 4 compliant does that mean the O2 issue is no longer an issue?

I don't know, but my advice is to ask a muffler expert like Midas or Macs Muffler Mart

the problem is the H18C8 mixing with the O2 and making some CO2 and some CO. Along the way some S met some O and had an inappropriate relationship, and it was later discovered that not all H18C8 liked mixing with the O2 and so journeyed on its own.
The story continues in chapter 2

The O2 sensor on the cat. FG requires a tune to stop the engine warning light coming on.
