is there a sticker or something on the DC headers that say its legal? or would i be able to use non street legal MEGAN headers and non get a fix-it ticket?

or simply how would a cop who checks my hood know i have street legal headers?

I think they might mean "street legal" as in able to pass emissions. Cuz I guess if your car doesn't pass emissions and pollutes the air more, then it isn't "street legal".

Maybe?

carb stampings usually on it if its legal

THEY DON'T MATTER IN MY OPINION AS LONG AS YOUR CAT CONVERTER IS LEGAL.

i learned my lesson u go cheap you end up paying more for fixing tickets and refree smog check then getting a legal headers and cop cant give u one sense theres a carb # i live in CA, sac and its terable here with cops and carb#

either way if a cop checks ur engine and sees that its not stock and really wants to give u a ticket, they will. Weather u pass emissions or not. Trust me ive tried to tell it all to them and they couldnt give a damn.

Yes a stock cat should get u through the emissions just fine.

I would also suggest checking the SEMA rules about ur states whats legal and whats not legal **** about cars. Ud probly be really surprised at what u find. Cuz EVERYTHING on my car as of right now is "street legal" but u name it ive probly been given a ticket for it. Heck with the few things i have on it as of right now it goes through emissions so clean that if it gets any cleaner they will have to check for "Illegal" parts i.e. h/i/e whatever it takes to get it to there specs will have to come off.

Just a heads up; and the sema wedsite link should be in my sig.

as long as you cat is legal and passes emissions you are fine.

I'd like to see your source. I've yet to find anything bad about a Megan header other than it doesn't give much gain, just like a DC because it's basically a stock replacement. I see your point about it being legal though but I have Megan on my car and am just personally interested in the problems people had because I'm very impressed wit the construction of it, especially for the price of it.
