I REALLY doubt that replacing the CAT with a straight pipe will improve the emissions.

Re: passing smog (ludecrasy87)

you took out the thing that keep your car running clean and you trying pass smog now?

for teh 0.158 whp, why not put the oem one back on?

you can't pass the visual, actual and cel scan tests.
