Gents,
I have 2 ideas in mind that will get me an offroad exhaust while allowing me to pass TN emissions.
The law here is you have to have cats- at emissions they stick a mirror under the car and look for them every time and check OBD-2. They DO NOT use sniffers.
I want offroad sound but don't want to have to swap midpipes every 12 months. So I have come up w 2 ideas.
1. Buy a set of cats off a junkyard car and gut them. Cheaper than #2. My only worry is that having a big, empty chamber right behind the collector could cause major turbulence (See Bernoulli's Effect)
2. Buy a lethal offroad X and ask someone to fabricate a shroud that looks like a cat and have them weld it to the appropriate place on the offroad. Might cause heat problems on the section of pipe covered by the shroud. More $.
Any thoughts?
