Know anyone in PA you can register it up there? I know for a fact your car has cat inserts and are legit

They dynos were just recently removed. Back to tailpipe testing for all 95 and older cars.

If you don't want emissions testing there are some easy loopholes...

I am going over to the Bel Air station and give it a shot, if it fails, I guess I will buy a catted Y-pipe. Maybe you can drive over with me and when they can`t find the cat`s you can tell them you did the install, and that they have cat inserts.

I was going to owings mills tomorrow but now I am worried I dont have cats. Never been tested before I allways got a waiver because I could not go over the rollers. I may file for extension but if it snows I am not taking my car out of the garage.

I would like to know this one:

I think most of the loopholes have been sealed up, but who knows. I would go when they are busy, the employess who are using the mirrors don`t give a **** and they just go through the motions with the mirror.

As long as there are no SES codes you're fine. Like Giddswat stated above they just go through the motions w/ the mirrors.
