Gutted Cats.. Pass emissions? Hey all!
I'm gonna be throwing a set of LT's on my car soon and I need to get a custom Y done up for me. My question is, I have to pass a sniffer up here and a visual as well. The sniffer isn't as strict as Cali's so I figured if I gutted the Cat's I could save some money and still pass a visual..
Anyone here pass emissions tests with gutted CAT's and some sims? Cali test?
Any/all help appreciated!

Thanks man.. any more opinions?
Damn CATS... our E-testing is going away come 2006 but that's a ways away.. I still need to probably pass 1 more test.. I'm gonna do some research and see if I fail and pay the 250 bucks to try and make it pass, if I'll be good till the e-testing crap dies up here..

i know down where i am they do the sniffer, but they give you like 10 tries before you can pay to make it pass. You get two tries per payment, thats $150 then you still gotta pay that fine of $250. Thats to much dough, try to find someone that'll get you a sticker. Or just get lt's and high flow cats, they only rob about 8rwhp. Thats what i would do, then when the sniffer test gets revoked just get an ory. Or get FLP headers or something with cats/race pipes that swap out

Yeah fur shure.. I hear yah.
I'm gonna see if I can't score some Cheapo Dynomax Cats/whatnot.. that or price out the magnaflows and see what the difference is. I plan on doing headers in the fall.. I'm thinkin for now I might just get my exhaust guy to cut out my shitty flat Y and put in a good round one for the heck of it.. it'd be free so why not
Thanks for the help man!
