engine mods and emissions?
Hi all,
I have a 08 C6 A6 ls3. I am about to buy and install headers, free flow cats, CAI, 160 thermo and then get it tuned. I understand this blows my warranty to hell but does anybody know after all that if the car will pass New York State emissions inspection?
Thanks,
Mike

I have the same car with the same mods. the car was tuned by chuck cow and emissions are well within federal standards. As to warranty this is for the most part up to the dealer. Find a friendly and stick with them. Have the car service & maintance done there so they get to know you.

From a technical stand point, anytime you move the CATS from the factory location, it is against "Federal" law. However, there are states that "overlook" the location as long as you have them and all other test results pass.........
