I moved here a year ago and my 2004 GT has cams, catless H pipe, long tubes, and a procharger.
Will it pass inspection here in VA?
Where do YOU recommend I go?
Pm me if you have a place it would be greatly appreciated.

Just wondering. IF you go to your local auto parts store and have your car scanned with an ODB2 reader does it say "readiness test complete"?

Less of a pop on start up, less cabin noise, honestly I like it better than no cats. I ordered steeda ball joints do you know of them or how well they perform? the information sounds solid, however I'll always have my doubts considering i purchased moog last year and they already out of tolerance.
