i just got a helix dp last weekend. with the stock uppipe still in, any chance it will pass smog? not that i mind to swap the stock dp in when smog is due couple years later, just wondering. and also i've seen on the net that some people installed the stromung 3rd cat eliminated pipe and put the stock 3rd cat heat shield over it to fake there's still a 3rd cat, will this trick work on helix dp?

I do the same thing that racerz does or recommends with my truck and my wrx... I run them catless and when time comes for smog I change them out and everything is cool...
