my county dont need have emmisions tests... just have to pass inspections. we have a small rural county with a naval base that attracts alot of jobs and business. county and navy base made a deal that we dont need emmissions test... sweet!

It was done on a chassis dyno in 2nd gear at around 3K rpm for about 2 minutes.

In CT they got rid of safety inspections but we have emissions testing. So your car can have no headlights, no seatbelts, no windshield wipers, no doors, and the body can be rotting off the frame but as long as you pass emissions, you're good to go! What a joke......

The cost of living here in Calif is so high that any little car thing can get you a stiff penalty.

My friend just got a $100 ticket because his front license plate was on the dash (which a cop told him would be OK)
and not mounted to the front bumper.

I was bored today, so I thought I'd mock up the test pipe and cat back and see how she looks.

This pic doesn't do it justice. You can see this exhaust from a mile away.

It looks pissed. Gonna go do some Honduh hunting tomarrow.....

My TMS downpipe with built in turbo elbow is coming 10am tomarrow morning. Just have to sort out the gasket issue because they didn't give me enough.

Let me just start off by saying TITAN MOTORSPORTS SUCKS!!!! DON'T EVER BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM!!!! Ok I got it out of my system.

But seriously, first off, the 4 bolt turbo flange on the downpipe was bent. Good thing I own a big fuckin hammer. Then the piping was too close to the studs and I couldn't get the nuts on. Then the O2 sensor BARELY reached the connector. They provided no gasket and no hardware. They will be getting a piece of my mind when I call them. They obviously don't have quality control because this downpipe was a piece of shit. Good thing I'm handy wit dem dare tools.....

But besides the little hiccups, now my supra sounds like a race car. Very loud, turbo spools instantly and its sooooo funny watching the stock boost gauge peg tha fuck out way past 8+. I'm going to take a picture of it, prolly make it my sig pic..... My aftermarket boost gauge was reading around 8 so the stock gauge is a little ludacris lol.

Wow, its just a matter of time before I get pulled over.

Here's a pic of the TMS downpipe.

The only good thing I have to say about the TMS pipe is it came with a flex section. Because without it, there would be NO POSSIBLE WAY it would have fit the test pipe or catback.
