Default Catless??

For those of you who run catless...how obvious is it?? by the smell...or is it possible to tell. I live in CA and we have smog ***** and im wondering if i could be caught if a copper smelled it? or saw black smoke shootin out or something. i hear there are huge fines for illegally modifying your car in CA...just dont wanna get slapped with a HUGE fine or anything. im not worrying about smog, there are ways around that, plus im keeping the old midpipe.

The smell is profound. I have LM1's, LTs, and o/r X. No DOUBT you can smell that stuff coming out the pipes. And the sound is ridiculous, ticket worthy with LT's and a straight thru style muffler like Loudmouths or Stingers.

But hell... it is SO worth it!

Ive been pulled over quite a few times, nothing exhaust related. But I always turn off my car when I do get pulled over, and I am VERY suprised a cop hasn't said anything about the smell, I guess they are pretty much clueless though.

And PS- If you are worried about your dad smelling it... He probably won't really even notice, you can make something up, but honestly, if your worried about your dad... Your in for a ride, lol.
