ok like title says im getting rid of theese furniture wrecking flea bitten monsters, they **** on the floor and get hair all over my clothes...so who wants them?



no no jk. but ive been giving alot of though into getting a mid pipe/ test pipe (what ever you wanna call it i want my cat gone). easy and cheap enough to do. but what about getting it inspected? i know alot of guys here dont have them so what do yall do when it comes time? and since even without cats into not super loud i assume no cop trouble but if you have stories please share?

 

swap back to stock when inspection time comes..

 

 

i thought texas has no laws on catless cars

 

i wish

 

no that i know of, (will look into this)

 

In Texas we dont have the sniffer so as long as your not throwing a SES or code you will pass.

 

the cat is a federal mandate.
some states just don't enforce it much.

if you get the midpipe, you'll get a CEL unless you can mask it with something like an AP.
I'd suggest looking at a resonated pipe like BHR's so you won't attract too much attention

 

i live in houston, so if i get a midpipe get a AP and mask the cel i should be able to pass emissions?

 

I know of some chinese restaurants that are always adopting cats......

 

better yet i know a guy who will pass you the emissions so you dont have to worry too much about it

 

I know when I was in pa and they did a safety inspection the inspection guy had to "see" a cat....yeah it could b gutted or whatever( i lived in a non emissions county) but they had to be able to see it....

I would keep the cat and just swap it back on for inspection!...

 

where Im at in PA they check for a CEL and sniff the gas cap luckily, no tailpipe test and they didnt put it on a lift just jacked up a corner removed 1 wheel to check brake pads, my old Talon loved it here

I may just get a test pipe and Mazda Maniac Cobb AP with the stock exhaust as well, Im not feeling a fart can for the 8, I like listening to the intake and being able to think or conversate in this car.

^Agreed, Id keep your cat and swap back if you need to.

 

^yeah....I had a "special" place I went ot for inspection but they are "supposed" to check that it's there! haha

 

well "suposedly" my bother in law knows a guy who will hook his personal car up to the emmision to test it. but if thats not true then it seems like alot of hassle. and yes texas had a very very strict emmissions law if your car isnt a 'classic'
