Test pipe fine?

[audipotential]

Hey guys...Whats the Fine for being caught with a test pipe....

Elton im sure youve done your research already?

[Siggiepop]

as long as when you go do emission you pass you're fine. They can't prove you have one on the spot.
you're doing testpipe now?

[mattman]

^^^ thats not true. MTO has 'sniffers' equipped in some of their impalas. they can pull you over any time and do a test. I remember hearing the fine is 400$ per cat which was removed (don't know how true that is though).
MTO/E-Test FTL

[Siggiepop]

they say they do. But they don't. They are more concerned with drunk driving.

thats bullshit. MTO does nothing about drunk driving.
MTO is in charge of all the safety/emissions crap, and they're the ones you have to worry about. SOME of them are ass-hats.

[Siggiepop]

when it happens i'll cry. but so far all my other buddies running testpipes for 2 years+ and they alright

how do they prove ou have no cat....if they pull u over AND by chance they have that thing that they say they do...all that happens is ... u fail the test horribly....might mean that ur cats not workin at all but u still do have a cat....

Well the way it would work is they would test your emission and then they would look under your car or tell you to pop your hood in our case

[lorvar]

Do what I did on my Celica, gut out the existing cat and leave the shell. Visually it looks like you have one, but it won't pass emissions. Seriously, the only reason to dump the cat is if it's clogged, which will damage your engine. I plan on changing it to a high flow one, better for the car.

[headshok2002]

High flow cat ftw.

If an MTO officer or a police officer believes for any reason that your car has been modified they can order you directly to an inspect station. There they can check everything over... as for a hollowed out cat, tapping on it with a stick will be enough to know its just outer shell only.

[mianol]

but my cats right after the turbo in the dp!

well....thats where it was........

[Siggiepop]

^lol

[jefferson88]

Unless you're a major attitude case that street races its not a high priority.... MTO is more concerned with commercial truck safety.

"piggies" are on the 2.7 they have 4 cats and you just gut the first 2

I have a brand new test pipe sitting in my basement now, I purchased it a year ago but through all the posts I've seen, I decided not to put it on afterwards.
