Yes it does, and they are quite strict. But you could sneak your way around with some cash, and by having an insider :)) But that would not be the option for this car, it has 2 O2 sensors, one before and one after the cat, so it would require some tampering with ECU, and mostly mom drives this so stock is just fine :)) I will replace midpipe and muffler these days so it should be ok, and hopefully not do any damage to the engine... Yeah, I like it cat-free :) Exhaust fumes <3 :)))
Does Croatia have emissions test that your car must pass? If not than have you considered completely gutting the cat? Or does your engine require that back pressure to run correctly. Also it would depend on the location of the 02 sensor. I miss the old days when you could alter exhaust any way you wanted and it wasn't illegal
