Sorry semtex for responding a little late. I'm not talking about being pulled over for the exhaust. I agree. The Stillen exhaust does look like stock. It's when you bring in your car for smog check (which is about 5 years later from what year the car was made or bought - not too sure). They will test by sniffer and also visually inspect the catalytic converter, if it's in placed or changed. You may pass the sniffer, but will fail by visual.

Back to the topic... those are nice numbers!

Thanks for explaining. Thankfully, I don't live in CA and they're nowhere nearly so thorough in GA. All they do here is hook up an OBDII cable and as long as your car hasn't thrown any recent CELs, you're good to go! No visual inspections, no sniffers (unless it's an older car with no OBDII interface).
