I might be moving soon, and right now i have a test pipe which obviously won't pass state inspection. I'm looking to either get a high flow cat if that passes, or buying someones stock cat just to get the car inspected. anyone know any info on this stuff?

 

A test pipe will pass emissions. It just won't pass visual inspections. Here in New Jersey OBD2 cars don't get pipe checked. Just computer check and visual.

I thought Florida doesn' t even have inspection. Also, I believe older cars aren't even getting their NOx read anymore too. So even obd1 and old cars don't even need cats for inspection.

I've passed on all of them. Test pipe, Hi flow, and stock cat.

 

yeah its not for florida, anything goes here haha... im going to be moving back to new hampshire soon.

 

Fl sounds like a great place for cars, except the street racing take your car and liscense deal, but that really isn't an issue anyways

 

if the high flow cat is visible, than yes youl pass inspection(depending on if your throwing a cel or not)

my advice, keep the testpipe, buy a cat(whichevers cheaper) get inspected and throw the test pipe back on

 

any reason you can't........

.........put the stock cat back on for the inspection ? ? ?

 

i think he might of gotten rid of his stock exhaust parts

 

yeah i dont have a usable stock cat anymore.

 

yeah...........and that is where your problem is.

never git rid of stock parts on a car this new.

get a U.R. high flow cat ( i have one) it is going to flow enough for any one who has not done any "serious" mods to their RA.

it will pass a sniff test .

just make sure the car is nice and hot before the test.

 

i still have my cat... but its not usable. I ruined the o2 sensor bung getting the o2 sensor out a while ago. My registration comes up in July before I move so i will renew down here and that will buy me some time.

 

....take that cat to a decent machine shop.

i am sure that bung can be "repaired"...........

..........for A LOT less money than a new/replacement cat would cost.
