I didn't know that DC header threw a cel...

Oh well, time for a couple of O2 sensor sims up front.

Michigan doesn't have emissions tests anyway w00t.

Are you talking about the dc on a tc?

Just relocate the 2nd o2 sensor behind the second cat and you should be fine. The second 02 sensor just checks to make sure that the air is cleaner than the front.

just a hint read up on tc tunerz before you buy from them.. check the shop feedback area.

Is it that bad? I should be fine If I pay with paypal though. I am guaranteed to get either the product or money back.

Where can I see thier shop feedback?

the 4-1 header will pass smog as well and also has a carb # so it will be legal.

Thats pimp

you should do the same and weld on the cover of a converter to your race header and find a shop that will pass it for smog. you don't have to smog your car for awhile anyways so you will be straight.

The dc header for the tc doesn't have a carb number b/c its not carb legal. I forgot to mention that the cat in the header of the tc is the primary cat and has the o2 sensor before and after. The o2 sensors are only on the header cat.

One of my friends got a 2nd CAI carb number and stuck it on his header...

That car looks sweet tho... you should try and get your hands on a set of A-spec rims... it's look like a JDM Type-R for sure then. :D

thanks. but how will my car look more like a type R w/ the a-spec rims? they look nothing like the ITR rims. i'm gonna get some volks for it tho.

They're as close as you can get without spending a billion dollars. The A-spec is as close as we'll ever get in the US to a Type-R with the DC5's.

Looks really clean. I think you should get different rims, then it would look a lot hotter.
