Classic Cars

In Ontario, what restrictions are there for classic cars in relations to the exhaust system?
In Ontario, Canada, what restrictions are there for a classic car (20 years or older) in reference to the exhaust?
Would it be legal to cut off the exhaust right before the cat converter and run 2.25″ pipe straight back?
I know after a car is classic, there is no more e-test. I just don’t know if this is legal?
From the Ontario Drive Clean Programme:
“Drive Clean is focusing more strongly on vehicles that are most likely to pollute and has ended the rolling exemption that allowed light-duty vehicles to leave the Drive Clean program when they are 20 years old.” This is effective with the 1988 model year.
What you “know” is old news, sorry. So you have to maintain the exhaust system, unless your vehicle is 1987 or older.
However, the fact it doesn’t have to pass the test doesn’t mean you can just cut the converter out. Federal laws in Canada and the US state it is illegal to remove a properly functioning catalytic converter. You may remove a defective or dead converter, but, if the car came with a converter, you then have to replace it. Many motorists have put in straight pipes, and found out when they went to sell the car, they couldn’t, or they got caught in a roadside safety check and were issued fix-it tickets. You can’t count on getting away with thumbing your nose at the law. If your car needed a converter when it was built, it still needs it now, the engine hasn’t magically changed the level of pollutants produced.
