These headers replace the cats with test pipes correct? I know Megan makes a few diff headers. These long tubes have straight pipes right? If so, can you pass smog ok? After hearing your car I'm seriouslly considering buying these if I can Stay carb legal

I dont believe you will pass smog with these out in cali, but im not sure so dont quote me on it. But yest these are "one piece headers" or "long tube headers". Rather than having the standard shorty headers bolted up to high flow cats or test pipes (they are a header/test pipe all in one) You might want to call MR and ask if they will pass emissions

Technically, long tube headers are not legal in any state. The only states that it will not be an issue are ones that don’t do smog tests (or visual inspection)... but that doesn’t mean its legal.

Federal Law prohibits omitting catalytic converters.

here's some basic info:
