MA + RV6 Jpipe

Has anyone from Mass had trouble passing emissions/inspection with the RV-6 V3 Jpipe?

^you shouldnt.

there are no sensors on the 3rd cat.
which means you will not get a CEL.
which means when they hook up the OBDII scanner, it will pass.

visual inspection - the jpipe pretty much looks factory.

tail pipe sniffer- you still have the two primary cats in place right?

I have had my set up on for a couple of years now without any issue and I travel on route 3 (Bedford, MA/Nashua, NH local) all the time. My set up is ATLP J-pipe with RV-6 resonated test pipe plus ATLP base exhaust (non-resonated).

the PCD's will come with defouler attachment for the lower o2 sensors on the pre cats. it shouldnt pull up any codes, but the smell is pretty strong, i have xlr8 v2 j-pipe and rv6 pcd's. smell was soo bad i had a 200cell metallic cat convertor welded after the j-pipe. i suggust you spend a little more money and get the HFPCD's

I have had PCD's in Mass and pass inspection with no problem.....no CEL with defoulers installed.....Mass has no sniffer test so you should be good at any local gas station that does stickers!! ...they could be dicks and check your engine bay but that rarely happens....
