Full exhaust in Cali
Wait to do the exhaust until just after you smog it, then you have two years to worry about it.
With my setup I have only had one cop ask about my exhaust and I just said it has a magnaflow exhaust and he said "Sounds good".If you want your exhaust loud you will have more problems, mine is pretty tame and really doesnt attract much attention unless im on the throttle quite a bit.

In your case I would find someone to smog it. I would not ever ever ever ever go through the pain in the *** of putting my stock stuff back on then putting the headers back on. I'm running Hooker LT's, ORY, Magnaflow. Gotten pulled over many a time but never for my exhaust.

I have Hooker LTs, Hooker O/R Y, and a Hooker Aerochamber Catback. This catback is slighty louder than stock at idle but decently aggressive while under WOT....
I added a QTP Electric Cutout, that way I can be loud when I want and with a flip of the switch I go back to sounding close to stock

kooks lts, kooks spun cats, slp dual dual into a CME. didn't pass smog first time around but its probably b/c of my tune. CMS is taking care of that on monday. guy passed me on visual b/c he didn't want to crawl under the car. I should pass after the tune.

I already have my muffler cut out, but I want LTs. I'm just going to say f*** it and install them. Hopefully if I put the cats right behind the headers they will get hot enough to work and I'll pass the sniffer. I suppose a tune won't hurt either.
