yep - very strange, the one garage dinged me on a "visual" inspection... they thought they knew my car, they thought it had O2 sensors in front and behind the main cat... my sho-shop pipe threw them off... what dumbasses.
the "other" place simply put the sniffer in the exhaust and asked "what i got dinged on" - he just laughed... it's not like i'll get pulled over by a cop (or the DMV in general) for having part of my exhaust looking newer than the rest... doh!
