time to get a heat shield and weld it to my test pipe

AP_ONE

We used to do that as well but now they have the ministry going around as well ready to test any car they suspect. It sucks but in the end its better for everyone I guess lol.

I mean my car is super low and i can still easily see a big shinny straight pipe. Plus you can start your car if they ask you to and you can easily smell it, For you with no smog check are a ok

I agree with the OP.... if you can't modify a car legally, there's no fun in doing it.

Mr Ak

so how about Virginia? whats the laws on having one and fines?

JackS

HFC's aren't legal either. But you do have a moral argument if you should wind up in court. How well your argument may work might be the judge you get. Even if you lose, an HFC might allow for some mitigation and a reduced fine.

Good idea, I plan on keeping my car FULLY street legal just because I cannot be assed with the hassle of police nosing around my car to find a fault. Especially when the police HATE "boy racers"...

Could you notice the lose in POWAAA with the old cat back on??

AP_ONE

Notice, well I can feel a slight differance in pull threw the rpm range but overall, Its not worth a ticket or being impounded by any means, Ill have to re g tech the car

b4 was a solid consistant 13.8@103 If i recall, number on mph is at home.

None of my cars have ever had a Catalytic converter, but I guess I live dangerously.

High-Flow Cat FTW! They usually perform just as well as test pipes anyway.

Plus you're not being a douche and polluting more than you need to so you can "sound cool".

And yes, California is shit.
