What year is your car? '96 and newer are hard to fake the emmission tests because the plug into the car rather than using an exhaust sniffer

They don't do any inspection here at all.If you get pulled over for a loud exhaust If you have an a** h*** cop he might check and give you a ticket.That doesn't happen very often at all.

Who was that a while back that rolled their car in Flordia? It was like a white '95? He took pictures, and we all said..."Cops didn't notice that there were no cats on it?" How did that guy get past emissions? Especially since it was an older car?

Well I live in CA, the capital of emissions testing. I just bolt on the stock H-pipe one day every other year! Pretty simple rather than dumping Methanol into my tank.
