this will fail u ?
Just had my car inspected and it failed for not having a cat. Do most places go by this policy?

depends. i found a place that doesn't even look.
places that don't look however are putting their future in the hands of the police because the fines for inspecting a car with no cats are HUGE.

hahaha. I cannot believe you asked that. It's a huge fine and highly illegal. My s14 I had until 2 days ago didn't have on but still use some common sense.

Unless they actually test the emissions or you have a 2nd O² sensor and your light comes on.

if all they do is a visual check just hollow out your cat, then its pretty much a test pipe
