Default Emissions & Corsa

88 Vert, Auto. I'm ordering the Corsa Cat Back system and have debated on either the original Catco high flow catalytic convertor with the two pre-cats or I want to go without them but I have to passs emissions in August. Will it pass if I use the Catco High flow Catalytic convertor without the pre cat (delete option). I'm guessing it's not a problem but I have read a few threads and the people answering have a lot of knowledge of what will work! I don't have an inspection to go through just the numbers game!

Thanks for any advice in advance!

I took my wife this morning for a drive to pick up her car at the mechanics and she complained about the resonance, NOW I get to improve the flow! This was the first time in owning it for 5 years that she's driven in it with me, I have to be careful that I don't make it too quiet or she will want to drive it!

If the engine is hot, then it shouldnt be a problem with the sniffer test, unless its very strict up there.

Wont pass a visual though.

Thanks Vader, I don't have to pass a visual and I'm pretty sure deleting the pre cats and just using a high flow cat with the Corsa cat back system I should pass.

I've found the CATCO part # 9518 which includes the front pipes, precat delete and Cat.
What it dosen't say is HIGH FLOW catalytic convertor, is it?
