like i said, this is a discussed topic, but i've never head this particular little thing specifically talked about. if i get a race header and eliminate the cat, how would i pass emissions? and how do you that have them pass? and if you don't, how do you drive without getting stopped?

many switch over to stock...some get by because they don't do visual...the car will pass emissions with the race header.

wait... so you're saying i wouldn't need a cat to pass emissions? because that's not what i've been told. is there anyway to relocate a hi-flow cat somewhere?

you won't pass visual...you will pass smog, you could install a cat near the flex, but if it works as it should...i wouldn't really think so. if your worried...just do a shorty and high flow.

There isn't any emissions testing done in West Virginia that I know of.

i guess if i didn't pass i could just put the cat back or something. would a shorty and a hi-flow cat yield the same power as a race header?

of course not...but close power.
