"The guy asked he what he had in the car" Just take out the first "HE" and it'll make sense.

He was cruisin down the freeway and an r6 pulled up all cool and cocky, and started revvin, so Mike ran him in 4th and pulled on him. The guy asked Mike what he had in the car, Mike's friend leaned out the window and said, FIVE PEOPLE!!!

HAHA pwned I had 3ppl in the car yea when I went into 4th gear thats when the car got nasty

And I am not the manager of a high end shuttle service company I need to make more money. I do WANT to get new wheels, a GT3 full body kit, suspension, the intake, exhaust, and tune for the car (asside from the bluetooth, and probably ski-rack I'll get next year). And a set of RT03s with some take-off slicks for the track would be nice Plus I'm probably going back to school in the fall, which means less money to spend on car stuff
lol I sold a house and a lot of the $$ went into the evo & I do okay with work but now we got a copy cat comapny popping up every month with a name like ours and trying to solicit and steal our ppl

whoa new wheels..gt3 body kit and all that other stuff ...yea you need some more money haha ****ing porsches are not cheap..start with suspension

Man I wish some one would pull up to my Busa, I want to see all these super fast Evo's at the track April 19th, we can compare time slips. Oh and RMR is having Midnight Drags and Midnight Drifts May 2nd. I guess you guys keep picking on squids.

Cuz most likely a cant pass emissions with a test pipe on and i've been looking forever and the one i want is finally on sale. Anybody know if you can pass with a test pipe?

I looked under the car today and it doesn't look like the oem cat is even on there, some after market i guess? But my CEL is on so most likely that means the cat is broken, doesn't it? Or could it be something else?

no having a CEL doesnt mean that your cat is broken, cats dont break... it means that your o2 sensor is messed up, check it out to see if you have a lil o2 spacer in between the sensor and the exhaust. i am pretty sure your car already has a HFC on it so i wouldnt rush into buying a new one. plus just do emmisions up here in wasach county, when i had my inspection i has a test pipe

His name is Jason, he WILL get you a damn good deal. I'm going to be loading cams onto his site tomorrow, and he's planning on having some screaming deals on those if anyone is interested.
I got on your buddy's site and the last thing i did was check out the customer car of the month

Does he have an actual location or is just an online thing?

I went to auto zone to get it checked out the day the Service Engine Soon light came on and it came up saying there was something wrong with cat or the air flow or something like that? (was a long time ago) then went to solid autoworks to get it checked out by someone that actually knew something abot evos not some old guy at auto zone that didn't even know what kind of car it was, they said i need to get an o2 spacer. I've been told you can't get emissions done in a county you don't live in? but that could be wrong?

correct. You must have your inspection and emissions testing done in the county you live in.

Not unless they like you a lot, or mistake some other part when they do the visual inspection as a cat.

Basically, and even then your friend would be risking a lot by passing you. Safety they can pass you on and all they'll usually get is a slap on the wrist by the PD. Emissions and they get like a 50k+ fine from the state and their license to do S&E removed permanently

Just put a heat shield around your test pipe, if it doesn't pass they will give you 15 days to fix it.
