Well I took my car to the Smog Station and I was informed that the cats were burned out.A&A replaced the cats and I passed the smog test with flying colors.Thanks to Andy and his crew,I am now legal.

I have the same set up as you done by Andy. Do you have all (4) O2 sensors on your LT header exhaust system? I only have 2 (the rears moved the front) and the other 2 deleted. I was told it would not pass with the 2 removed & deleted sensors because it will show up when they plug into the OBDll port?
Thanks
Thanks

Thanks[/QUOI have the same setup.I only have the 2 sensors in my exhaust.Andy took the 2 rear sensors and moved them up front.I was really surprised with the increase of performance.It just goes to show,if you don't realize you are losing performance little by little you don't feel it until the problem is corrected.
