I'd rather go with test pipes. In NY you'll pass inspection unless you have a check engine light, just make sure you go to a shop you are familiar with so that they don't do a visual inspect, which they probably wont since it requires lifting the car or climbing underneath. I have posted a vid on this forum of test pipes with the stock exhaust on a dyno, should be around somewhere.

I actually did end up meeting G35guy today, spur of the moment thing. +1 rep for an awesome car, exhaust, and being a stand-up guy. At this point I am really confident and excited to get my FI cat-back, and 99% sure I will pair it up with the ERZ cats.
Thanks, man. Glad I could help.

And, Justin, we could meet up anytime you want. Just let me know when you'd be available.

NJ inspections as of July 1st will become more lax as well, no more mechancal inspections, and only emissons of cars older than 5 years old.

Im gonna stick with the HFCs. I dont want the sound to be over the top loud. This is the first time I have heard a definitive answer regarding NYS inspections. Any other time Ive asked people just advise to swap stock cats back on, which I have no interest in doing.

Only shop I really know is the place I have trusted with my 3000GT. 3s Motorsports, now Pampena Motorsports, is basically THE place to take your 3000GT/Stealth in the NE. They actually just bought a dyno (dynojet I believe) and when I asked how much he said $80 for 3 pulls. Theyre in Ronkonkoma.

I've heard this too... but thought it was yet to be voted on. Has this officially been passed?

My SS FI CBE with 18" resonators is "shipping this week" and I ordered ERZ HFCs on Wednesday (hopefully less than a week wait time).

I also finally installed the splash guards I got from my dealer for free because of a scratch on my hood they neglected to tell me about.
