now all this straight piping and removing all these exhaust parts...wont that make passing a smog test impossible??? we used to have a test only station, and most cars that came in with just aftermarket intake and exhaust would not pass. unless you guys plan on putting stock parts on before the test?

the piping doesnt matter, as long as you have 2 cats (or 3 on some cars) and a legal intake (some aftermarket are CARB exempt) then you are fine to pass. mufflers dont really affect smog results, my car does pass the visual and should pass the pipe test when i need to do it ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
