Last week it needed a MAF and an AOS after the Check engine light came on.
This week it needs a primary CAT and two O2 sensors!

Can you say $3500 down the crapper!? Sigh!

Why don't you install cat-delete pipes? The pair costs like $190.

Unfortunately here in Colorado we have an emissions test requirement with visual inspection.

So do we in Cali. I swapped for cat-delete pipes and hopefully I'll get lucky for the smog test. Worst case I kept the stock cats to re-install them if needed. Or I need to find a "friendly" smog shop
