Not really looking, but could use some advice. Recently swapped stock headers unknowingly clipping cat. Bored out plug 1/2 inch ( advice found on this forum ) No cel light. 36" glass pack straight pipe custom exhaust. My question, with no cel light, will I pass DEQ?

I've never had to take my car to DEQ before, but I'm sure someone around the portland area could answer that for you. I'm running straight pipe, no cat

Every club has every type of car in them from stock to highly modded........the PNW likes to be know as one big family of car enthusiasts.We have 4 large teams up here,and several independants and a couple more teams starting up in the Spring.

No need to feel like you need to compete at modding,up here we don't worry about 1uping each other.......like I said we are just one huge group of people with a comman car or cars and a love to get out and have fun first and foremost.

No need to belong to a team to get help with anything.......really it is a matter of just asking and someone will help......that is the great part.

The Portland area has a large group of owners that get together on a very regular basis to hang out,do install days,party and have fun.....in time you will get to know them......don't be shy........they won't bite.......heck they even like me.....lol
