The pipes are a great price and I like the 2 part design.

If you search you can find specific examples, but the rundown on CA is it technically fails the visual inspection, but if your car is in good order it will still pass the sniffer test. Of the CA cars mentioned here, I don't remember any not passing.

I am about to smog mine, have had the TS Cat Delete pipes for about a year...hope it's clean enough to pass. My guy won't bother with the visual, so crossing fingers out here in CA!

I also have the TS cat deletes and TS mufflers, for almost 2 years.
I have my smog test in the Fall this year, but others have done it and passed just fine.

A good tip is to get the engine nice and hot before the smog as the extra emissions when cold it the reason they put 2nd cats on California cars in the first place.

I posted the actual before cat delete smog test numbers way back in a thread and will update with the results from the test with the 2nd cat delete installed.

Its nice to be able to quantify the results.
