Hey yall we talked about emissions before, i went to a muffler shop to get my true dual set up built and they said they wouldnt let me leave the muffler shop without cats cause its a 50,000 fine for the guy that built the system and 500,000 for me gettin him to do it. Anyone know where i can just get the shell of a 3 inch cat to put on as a dummy.

Hey BRO I have done over 20000 ET in Ga and at this time there is no visual inspection on emission equipment. ( MY shop AVERAGES 38 tests a day) so yeah I know of what I say. On a OBDII test if the readiness monitors are set and you have no codes it will pass.
