I have an off-road MacProchamber with flowmaster series 40. Its very loud. Local enforcement keeps reminding me. Last night I even had a threat of EPA verification for pollutions. Monday I will order some Hiflow Cats.

Keep in mind also that getting a less restricted/better flow exaust will have a significant impact on your hp/torque curve. Sepcifically for the SOHC. It will loose a considerable amount of off the line torque... but gain on the top of every gear. It made me slower. Unless I compensate with a chip (to remap fuel) or a bit of back pressure (hiflow cats)... I can not run faster.
Sorry I didn't take you for a fool.

My car does pass emissions. It does not pass the visual but it does however pass the sniffer test. I've had it done two years in a row with the Off Road H and it has passed with flying colors.

The set up I have made the car faster. I don't have a chip either.
