that is b/c it is illegal to modify your emissions equipment, not b/c it will cause the car to
fail it emissions test. Disclaimer: I a not 100% positive of this but have spoken with some much more mechanically inclind people about this and they all have had the same reaction. My emission test in CT just netted me around 5 parts per (billion)million???? for whatever they were measuring when over 500 parts is the legal limit, other emission tests on this car yielded even lower results. Again please no flame war

Most shops won't install the test pipes for road use. If you get busted...
the driver gets a ticket est.$200.00, but the shop that did it for you (if they find out) gets fined BIG time!! $5-10,000. That's what a shop in Boston told me.
