yes there are always at least 2 catalizers per catalytic converter however it shouldnt confuse the state ref due to the fact that they are checking for the # of converters

i think they are confusing the midpipe of the hks exhaustlike ryan said but if there were truly 4 cats there would be 4 o2 sensors, but there isnt and if an o2 sensor goes bad check engine goes on like having test pipes =D

Tomorrow i will go there and tell them to suck it up, I already prepare all the paperwork.
- Picture of a Cat. Converter (with 2 cat. blocks in each)
- CHP citation list (NO E.0. # necessary)
- Diagram of Stock exhaust set up (Shows only 2 converters)
- List of nearby infiniti dealership phone numbers
- papers, a pen and my cellarphone set on the record mode

Hey, I talked to the Supervisor again. He said there is 27156 V.C which any modification on the exhaust is illegal. Any part of it, even just the tips. OMG. In other words, he's not passing anything that doesn't have a E.O. number.
an innocent ticket + a retarded state referee = f*cked up my week
