Default TSP True Duals with Cats??

I currently have the ORY pipe installed on my car which is illegal where I live. Now I've decided to go with catted true duals dumped at the axle. My first question is the best place to install the cats and sensors on the tsp x pipe........is it where the pipe's connect before the x? I will be installing the exhaust myself since I was able to install my current exhuast. Does the tsp bolt right up to the pacesetter LT's and is there any serious modifications to be done. I'll be working in my driveway! I've also seen the x pipe from speed inc. which is cheaper but doesn't come with the mufflers. Any modification bolting them up to the pacesetter's

I agree, in VA it states that the pipes have to exit the vehicle.

Damn!!!! I didn't know that the pipes had to exit the back in Va. I'm gonna ask my local exhaust shop how hard would it be to run them out back. I may just have to keep the catback and add cats.

have it out the back, but make the rear pipes bolt-on, that way, when out of inspection, you can disconnect them, and connect the turn-down tip.

Cost you extra coin, but if you want you'll get it done. Lots of VA people do whatever the hell they want. And get away w/ it most of the time. LOL

when you move a cat from its original location its against federal law so it will still be illegal with cats.
