Default Passing emissions tests?

I was thinking about getting the Kooks Long Tube with the catted X. Would I be able to pass emissions testing with that set up? Or should I just say the hell with it and go for the off road version? Thanks!

I dont know where you live.......
BUT i know that California wont pass ANY longtube headers and i think they only pass 1 brand of shorty headers. Longtubes are alot of work to put on and take off so i would do a little more reasearch before you buy. Just my :2cents:

That is correct and in California it would not be worth the time and effort. To install and remove them when needed.
