Including me.

He did say that he wanted it to be smog legal though. I wanted to make sure he knew that it wouldn't pass smog with the headers on there, cats or not.

I'm running LT's in SoCal. With a proper tune it'll pass smog just fine. Only thing it won't pass is the visual inspection. If it looks modified (and you don't have a corresponding CARB #) they'll fail it on sight. Just fyi.
