Emissions considerations. TPs will fail a sniffer test and visual inspection.

I know Amuse HFC's still give off hiss, i guess it's just the nature of the VQ when you add HFC's by any manufacturer, but i always wondered if Mine's Motorsports HFC's would do the same? I love my full Tanabe exhaust with stock cats, just wondered if anyone has tried Mine's?

I would have to agree with this. I do not like the way that cars smell with TPs. I guess the FI resonated HFC's is the way to go for me.

Thanks Speedfreak for your recommendation. Their description of those HFC's sound like what I am going for. Keep the suggestions coming guys this is great info.
