Does anyone in TX know?

Based on the results we've seen with our 02-06 ypipe the inspections have been completely fine based on the sniffer test. If for some reason the inspection agent knows to look for 3 cats and goes under the car then you could possibly fail a visual test. But the sniffer should pass with no problems at all

Sorry it's going to be a few weeks till it gets back in plus side is though that when they do get back we will be doing a special on them so You'll get the special pricing when the order is filled. If your the order I think you are you were not charged for the Sway since it was out of stock. But the order is still active

The order is confirmed but the parts that shipped are the only ones your were actually charged for. So although the authorization was for $xxx.xx, the final capture was a lower amount cause the sway did not ship

Cool another NICO member with a Coupe in Arlington!

I've got the ebay special exhaust as Doc pointed out.. I was going to remove the resonator since it's a tad quite sometimes...but with the Y-pipe I *might* get, I think it's best I leave the resonator on the car. Hmm.

well I have a y-pipe on the way... when I get it, I'll post before and after vids, and you can see whether or not you want to remove that resonator... that thing sure makes this exhaust quiet huh? I can't imagine what would be unleashed if the resonator is removed... for the price, this is a pretty solid stainless steel cat back (minus those fugly tips we both had to remove) ... I would say the best bang for buck mod I have... can't believe I was gonna pay $1000 for another exhaust with pretty tips
