A friend is asking to install stainless steel pre cat deletes . But in nyc I think there is visual inspection of exhaust. Some people say only one cat converter is required. Some say all 3 are required. Are those inspection people really That intelligent to know which newer hondas have 3 cat converters? Maybe in few years well have 10 cat converters to maintain.
Is cold air intake also an illegal mod in nyc?
