-The way the exhaust is setup, the cats will be after the 2nd o2 sensor, which to an inspector, will look fishy. -The GTM tune is setup to ignore any trouble codes stemming from the 2nd o2 sensors, since they are literally about 2 feet further down the down pipe than the primary o2 sensors. I am just unsure how that would look to the emissions testing equipment when they do a scan. |

Yeah I'm not sure how that would look either on the scan. And the cats after the secondary O2 sensors would definitely look a little funky.

When I was 17 I ran an off-road x pipe on my Mustang. I gutted some cheap cats and JB welded them around the pipes so I'd pass visual inspection.

I wish I could swap stock cats just to do the testing. What do they do for this on-ramp testing anyway? Just stand there and smell the exhaust? I have seen cops on the on-ramp to 66 west in falls church (exit 69) and figured they were looking for expired inspections.

A van with sensors sets up in the acceleration zone of an on ramp taking smog readings. It takes a picture of violators and sends them a nasty ticket.

![]() I hate those trucks, though. It's hilarious when one of them tries to drive in the city. ![]()
