Dear Gary,

The catalytic converter is clearly shown in the photo...
Looks like a perfectly legal setup to me!

Cheers,

A long time ago I picked up the URL for B.A.S. Ahnendorp in Germany from
the list <http://www.ahnendorp.com/>http://www.ahnendorp.com/.  Under "VW
Van" they show a good looking stainless header for the waterboxer.  Looks
to be proper equal length primaries with a collector in the center rear of
the vehicle as is done on air-cooled headers.  Anyone ever try one of
these?  Since the catalyst is no longer in the original position, I think
the header would be technically illegal in the US, but that does not
concern me.
By the way, check out the downdraft webers for the wbx on the same page.
(not that I would ever want to part with my digifant!)
