Emission testing and Vibrant exhaust?

[badmotorfinger]

I've seen in past threads that some folks think the Vibrant DP back exhaust will pass emission testing, but have not seen posts from anyone who has actually passed or failed. Has anyone been through the test and passed? I live in PA and have yearly emission testing. Mine is going on this week either way, but I'm curious about future testing headaches.

When I lived up in pa we went to a redneck down the street from me that did the testing and only did a visual. He was really cool with aftermarket exhaust because he had a couple old camaros and raced at the track all the time. I say try to find someone cool to take it do

What kind of testing do they do in PA?
Here in Texas, if you have an OBDII car, they don't do the exhaust sniffers. If you have OBDII, they hook the state's "brain" to your car and if there are no SES or CEL events you are good to go. They DO check the gas cap.

So, does PA do the sniffers?

I didn't feel like rolling around in the cold and snow, so I took it to a local shop for the install. They also do emission testing and they confirmed that for pre-96? or older they do the old skool sniffer. Anything newer that is OBDII is just a plug in with a visual inspection. The shop (a national muffler chain) was very impressed with the quality and fit of the Vibrant. Great sounding pipes.
