yeah i saw that but problem is the cost if i have someone else do it and the fact that since i fit the import street racing scene i dont wanna keep getting hassled by CHP for it. i havent really figured out what im gonna do but that is one of my 2 options.
 
Hey i ordered a OB header from ken...what else do i need to get before it is installed? a fouler trick or somethin?

When the header was installed everything was awesome. About 2 days later is when my check engine light and has been on ever since. I was able to clear it using a computer but it comes on again and again.
 
Yes you'll need to run the non-foulder to not get a CEL. I've been running the non-fouler for about 10K and no CEL, and passed my emissions check whooot!!!!

Where did you get your emissions test? if i get that non-foulder think i have a chance at passing the cali smog test?

With one cat you'd pass the smog test...With the Non-fouler, considering you don't throw a CEL at any point, you'd pass the OBDII diagnostic check, but you will NOT pass the visual they do down there...So you'll need to pull it, put in the stock exhaust manifold, pass test with flying colors, re-install header and go...
