I just orderd the jpipe a couple of minutes ago, BUT man I can't wait to see this exhaust you've created.IF it is possible, would you be able to make some torched tips? like this ???
I honestly can't find a place in boston that can do this type of tip. I really hope you can do it!! but if you can't, is there a place I can go (website) where they make and sell custom tips? I'm looking to get some 120mm tips.

do you think if a cop is behind you and he smells the gas smell will he give you a problem because that kill me. (im trying to make my whole setup as quiet as possible and evrything "sleeper" i guess)
planning; RV6 V3, precats, comptech CB (or the one richie is planning), major resonators
BTW. richie shipped my RV6 V3 out today...and its saturday, what a perfect thing to come home drunk 2 see

This pipe is flawless, there isn't much need for improvement
This with the pre-cats is the best mod for the TL, hands down. I felt the improvement stepping on the gas will never be the same again. Reversing into my garage theres so much pull sometimes :P

I believe that is it. It's the little prong thing they stick in your exhaust and rev the engine while connected to the smog computer.
I know the j-pipe removes the 3rd cat and wasn't sure if anyone in Cali had done the research necessary to answer this question. I thought I read something through the thread but don't recall seeing a conclusive reply.

I realize you might not have all the answers but hopefully others can chime in on this for us that live in emission anal states.

So if the 3rd cat isn't an issue on the j-pipe, does the new dual exhaust increase emissions to a point where a smog test failure may occur? I don't believe it should but lets be sure...

AFAIK, there will be no smell unless you are doing PCDs. The V3 J-pipe removes the 3rd cat which doesn't seem to do much besides allow for a ULEV certification. It does not increase odor in any way.
Most people would run into visual checks on the 3rd cat during the smog, but I've got that covered. I think in Cali everyone knows you're supposed to have 3 cats or something, not quite sure to be honest.

it's 'pick up your car at impound' ticket haha.
It just happens if you get unlucky.
Regarding the smell, it smells a lot for the first 2 weeks ish after you get the jpipe installed. I've made about 4 jpipes on my accord before richie started making his products and they've all smelled really bad when i first installed them.
in cali, it's a 50/50 chance of getting caught.
