They fail it and Im on my way...

 

Or they slap you with a $2500 federal fine for removing the cats.

 

Negative.. I have never heard of that happening to sombody.. What are you going to do when you go without cats?? I will say they got stolen

 

yall are crazy but thanks for the input!!

 

Man, I should move to MD...easy emissions there, Ocean City, ....isn't that where BlackBear hails from also? I've been to a few Yankees/Orioles games there and always had a great time, and I love Ocean City...

...sorry for hijacking the thread and getting off course...

 

well we pretty much answered his ??.. Correct okietech?? No Justin(blackbear) is about a hour away in the big VA... I don't care for any team from MD, they suck

 

I ran without cats for 6 months....got sick of it. I have a 2 year registration....so once I get rid of cats again I'll just put the stock crap back on for the inspection. If I was a smog guy and I smelt uncatalyzed exhaust I'd be tempted to take a peek underneath

 

I would then slip ya 40 bucks and say shhhh please.. But I have never done anything like that before

 

That's the only way that my current beater is going to pass...I'm going to have to go to an independent inspector. In the mean time I've been taking my chances and riding around with an inspection sticker that expired in 07

 

i passed with lt,s no cats, and slp loud mouths dumped. at a jiffy lube in pasadena tx. i was told it was a friendly place, but soon realized the people there were just really stupid. after looking under the truck he asked if i even had mufflers i said ya i got two of those, he looked again and asked do you have cats,... i dont see any? and i said yeah two of um then he said ok.
no codes were thrown thanks to wheatly, so i just laughed and hit 4k rpms as i left.
