Very Special Cat "Test Pipe"

[10-9jc]

With all the talent out there in manufacturing land, wouldn't

it be great for someone to come up with a Cat "Test Pipe"

that resembles the real thing - instead of just a straight pipe!



OF COURSE it would be ONLY for "off road" use . . . . and

"because" we prefer that 100% OEM "look" !!



The "real" one would always be available (unmolested) when and if

it was needed again . . . . like . . when your truck returned to the

pavement.



If somebody out there says, too expensive . . . . bet there's

a factory in China ready and willing . . . . . .

Yes but... . As mentioned before, the price of a NEW cat is way too much. Totally not worth messing up the new Cat IMOP.

Im also in Oregon but... Jackson County and what ever county Salem-Portland area is, they DO smog cars and trucks! What Im saying is, sooner or later, Oregon is going to be the new Northern California complete with all the BS smog rules in every county. As of now they only getr their $$$ from all the chicken tickets that they hand out left and right. My wife just got one 1/2 mile after entering highway 199 within a mile from home last week. They nailed her for $201. 00!!! She has not so much as ever had a parking ticket in the 30 years of driving! :-{}

 

[nickleinonen]

any 4" resonators that somewhat resemble a converter??

 

[HMistica]

That would be an awesome idea. I don't want to gut my original one just in case they come up with smog test for diesel here in California. It's not a matter of if but when they start testing. I'd like to run the test pipe but then there's that very tiny chance that you can get caught. I think I'll do it anyways pretty soon.
