EPA approved exhausts?
I was talking to my mechanic and he said its legal for me to put on a turbo-back exhaust as long as it's EPA approved! Soo.... does anyone make them?

The only part of the exhaust that relates to epa is the cat.The only concern with the catback portion of the exhaust is the db level.Here in cali I think the legal level is 95db.Hope that helps.

Yup, to be EPA legal, it MUST have a cat.
