exhaust and emissions

[Doober]

In Phoenix, you can't have an altered emissions system at all. So, if they happen to do a visual check (and they often do), a dual exhaust with 2 cats willl get you a big red sticker on your windshield if the original system was single with 1 cat.

That said, there are some things you can do that are still considered 'non-altered' - free flow cat or catback system, and you can use those headers with the AIR tubes, too.

Once you've passed the test, you can pretty much do what you want for 2 yrs, then it's back to the emissions station for another test.

Do you know if this is the same for Tucson, at the very least about the converters? I just moved out here w/ family, if that's the case I'll move out of the city limits... I just spent $400 on a stainless Pypes system this past spring :evil:

i was talking to my family down in vegas and he told me since my car is older thanan 80, i might not even need to get it checked, as long as its not drivin over like 5000 miles a year. my only question would be, would my 1/4 mile passes count towards my 5000 miles?
