that's my next route was looking to pick up a TP and just swap for inspection.

sounds ridiculous but i prefer it to running HFC/tp with the o2 spacers and all that. i just wrap and tuck my o2 for normal operation and unplug my afr sensor and wrap/tuck the sensor wire when the cats on.

have the whole thing down to about 30 mins from jack up to down.

I ran the HFC just so it would pass visual inspection if I ever got stopped. I figured I gave up about 5-10HP but was not worth a possible ticket.

VA, just have to get inspected once a year so swapping for inspection is best solution.

mac11wildcat · 02-04-2013, 06:09 PM

i use the stock cat and my tp. only have one bung on each. i just unplug the afr from its harness under the car so it doesnt get damaged. i tuck the o2 the rest of the time into one of the black little cubbies on the passenger side of the car and ziptie it.

I run a turboxs hfc and no complaints here. Hardly ever smell anything. Could run a test pipe year round as I don't have emission testing in my county, but I like the environment

I guess I will go with the 200 cell, I don't like the fumes and if there's an issue hen it comes time to inspect the I will swap it out with the stock cat. Thxs!

we dont have any type of road side sniffer here.

I run a CP-e HFC still stinks up the people behind me, but I never smell it.
