I think jethot makes a smog legal set. Or maybe they just have O2 stuff on them.

0 sets of long tube headers are legal. Anything that moves a cat from its original location is illegal due to federal laws.

This is true.

However, I guess you could take a chance and run LTs w/ cats and hope that the inspection guy has no idea where the stock cat location is and almost all LTs have at least the option to get EGR and AIR hookups.

I would ask some of the Cali guys...I know there has to be at least some people out there with LTs that pass emissions.

Yep.. I have Mac's (which are also illegal), but the short answer is no headers except shorties are legal.

Will you pass emissions?

Hell yea if your car is in tune
