NORULZleggy Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 in cali do they look at the uppipe? I mean as long as you have a catted DP I thought you were fine. You can get a grimmSpeed one and be set. or guy your catted one and save dome money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitexc Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Not a mention of said up pipe disintegrating and taking out the turbo? Was there any damage done when the catalyst failed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonoftheBread Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 You don't need the uppipe cat to pass emissions. Subaru removed it after 2007. I have a Forester XT uppipe on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
