Pcd question....

To all you Texas boyz running PCD's, does your car pass inspection? ...and where do the sensors get relocated to?

^pcd's come with defoulers, or an extension.
instead of the 02 sensors sitting directly in the exhaust stream, the extenders move it away. it sits like 2 inches higher in the stock location.

as long as your car doesnt have a CEL, it will pass.
sometimes, you'll have to angle the defoulers to where the car doesnt throw the engine light

Hey guys, I'm out in the Katy / West Houston area - selling 2 Yokohama YK580's from my 3G TLS if anyone is interested. Excellent condition, slightly used, and I can meet most anywhere in Houston.

The link in the Blackmarket is https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...8#post14968158

Don't really want to go with the HFPC's, so I might just get the PCD's anyways and hope it's not too bad of a rasp. If it does sound horrible, I'll just fix it by turning up the radio...

My tranny issue is still there, but it's gotten better somehow. Only thing I've done different is change the ATF to Redline racing, but still not sure if that did it cause it was months after that it started driving better. I'm thinking about buying a used tranny so I can just swap it out and see what happens.

I think you should upgrade your exhaust to help with the extra airflow. if it's too loud in the cabin, then you turn up the radio
