  • Emissions testing....

    Ok i live in michigan and we dont have emissions tests here, and i plan on this weekend getting my headers, hi-flow cat, and catback exhaust put on... and of course today i read right on the front of the daily newspaper... "EPA wants to make Michigan have Emissions Testing".. of course, right just my luck. so i was wondering if i would pass emissions with a hi-flow cat?

    YES and NO.

    Depending on the cat and the readings your state will take. In Washington state I passed fine, then I move to california (where they measure NO2) and I failed. Why? Because Washington doesn't care about that and the Cat doesn't have Iridium (?).

      I saw the headline too, so I was wondering about it myself...

      I did some checking and the Free Press article says "the vehicle inspections wouldn't start for several years." looks like maybe 2010 for us:

      So it looks like you would have at least 5 years to enjoy your cat before you even have to worry about it...
