my county has emissions but the next one over doesn't so i'm not too worried i can just register it there, and like most are saying, i'll just hold onto the cat'd pipe for a switch if i need.

I have a off road H-pipe and I was able to get it inspected in west virginia with no problems. Its just about the people you know really. With me moving here to texas, now i have to get it re inspected. But luckily for me i met a mustang club last night that knows of a place

an o/r pipe will net you a few more ponies up top but loose a little low end torque oh and it will be slightly louder too

I wish RI would follow suit on that one. Then I would be free and clear.
Lucky for me, i work AT an inspection station....

Im with you there. Im not tryin to yank my exhaust on and off every 2 years. But it still depends on where you live.
