Default Joe Z 'Street' Exhaust California Emissions

Hello,

Does anyone know if the Joe Z Exhaust 'Street' version would pass California emissions? I know it ways it has two CARB legal cats, but would I don't know if that means it would pass emissions.

Thanks!

Unless there's something wrong with your original cats it's illegal to remove them, even if you're putting other cats in their place.

Lightbulb From the source

It will pass the smog "sniffer" test for sure...

Unless the tech performing the test sees or feels there is a reason to fail the smog test based on a "visual" inspection, you will most likely be fine..

There is always the option to switching back to stock for test day.. That pretty much goes for any Aftermarket Exhaust System that is not Orignal Equipment.

Also, new cars purchased in CA will only need smog test after 6 years..

After that, time period it will be every 2 years.
