Me and my tour are moving out to California! Which brings up a few concerns on my part regarding emissions. From what I have read, emissions testing in OC consists of an OBDII scan, a sniff test on a dyno, and a visual inspection. My contour passes the OBD in Wisconsin with flying colors, but I'm not sure about the sniff test? :shrug:
Currently I am running no precats (wr headers), wr ypipe, magnaflow hiflo cat, and the stock catback. The car is fairly quiet at idle, but quite loud at WOT even without an aftermarket exhaust. Are they going to check for precats during the visual inspection? Do you guys think I have a chance of passing the sniff test with just 1 cat if I warm it up nice and good before the test?
