If this was it, you'd be in STS.

But removing the catalytic converter would move you into Street Prepared.

And finally, removing the rear seat moves you into Street Modified. Taking out the spare tire is legal in all classes, even stock.

intake will bump you out of stock class. Headers also bump you out of stock class. Test pipe will also bump you out of stock class. I "think" that is all ok in STS. Oops.. read above, not ok in STS so that will bump you out of STS and up another lvl. Maybe put the cat back in if you want to run in STS.

Don't get rid of your back seats, that will bump you way up the list in classes. It is ok to remove your spare tire and jack, but leave the back seats in.

 

well thanks. what ima do is just throw the intake back on leave the seats in and well its too much work to put in headers and cat back in before race day on this saturday so ill just go with headers and testpipe.

and im guessng ill have to take off my strut bars because i heard they bump you high for them. thanks alot for help

If you're running without the cat, you'll be in a class where strut bars and the intake are allowed.

Look under street prepared.

 

well since ill be put into street prepared i mine as well throw on all my strut bars and intake and what not.

well in part 13.10 part E. it says that removal of cat is not allowed and system must be operable. what does that mean. means i cant runt he car without a cat?

bryan

still reading all this info. should learn alot once im done.

 

i am going to put my cat back on, does anyone one know if they will still bump me for having 2.5inch piping inbetween my exhaust headers and downpipe, to the stock muffler? if ill still be bumped up ima put everything i own onto the car.

if not i wanna run in stock class

You can do whatever you want with the exhaust after it leaves the cat as long as it exits behind the driver, even in stock class. You just have to meet any noise restrictions your region may have.

You can't use headers in stock class. Please read my post above, and the rulebook to see which class you'd go into with a given combinations of mods.
