Ozone? I don't think anyone brought that up before, but it's got very little to do with exhaust fumes.

BTW as WolfWings mentioned:

. A three-way cat converts NOX better if you're running a rich mixture, or converts the other two better if you're running a lean mixture

This is very true, the ECU, in our cars at least, keeps oscillating the mixture between rich and lean in order to maximize the efficiency of the cats

Anywayy, as I said before, it's just irresponsible to have a daily driver without a catalyzer
