OBX Exhaust Manifold Headers

If I install OBX Exhaust Manifold Headers, you can see here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=160427285888

will I be able to pass the emissions as it will eliminate the front cat? Will I be able to erase the check engine light which is currently due front cat?

Thanks

Hook up ur 2nd o2 sensor to a spark plug fooler(u can get them at local autoparts stores), and plug it back in place.. reset the CEL.. and it shouldnt ever come back on.. and u should pass emisions as long as u have 1 Cat still.

being that i dont live in ur state i donno ur emission laws, or how they check ur vehicles. u can PM me if u have any other questions or concerns, i do not normally look into this section of the forum

I have heard the RPW ones are the best but because of their design more than anything.

You will loose alot of low end power but they are fun on the highway. I wouldn't call home to Momma about them but I like the ones I got and having only paid $50 for them from a local guy on craigslist made it even better. He thought they didn't fit but they were perfect!!!!!

Take it from me, I have OBX's on and they take the place of both cats.
They have a "built in test pipe" if you will.
Not a bad thing, just need to keep it in mind.

As for low end power loss... I've never had this issue.
