is it street legal to put a y pipe on my Max? im hearing conflicting things from people, and i need an informed person to set the record straight.

 

you'll pass inspection without any problems...just make sure your car is warm up prior to inspecting yr car...

 

They are not street legal anywhere in the US.... but you will pass emissions like ^^ he said.

 

what they said

 

lol post *****...

 

its post whoring if all you say in your post is that im a post *****

i was simply agreeing. ive learned that on here no one will believe you unless at least 10 more people in a row say the same thing

 

that was my initial point of my post! to post *****! lol...yeah i agree with you that most of these people just won't take a hint if only one person gives advice...

 

it is illegal to remove any emmisions component. 2001 Y pipes remove a pre-cat so its illegal...but you'll pass emmisions with a warm engine.

 

Yeah luckily thats one of the few things in jerzey u shouldn't have a prob wit

 

illegal, but no cop in his right mind is gonna go underneath your car and verify that you have a y-pipe.

 

can't you fail visual inspection?

 

haha,id be like 'sir,why are you out to get me??'

Yea,my inspection is due by the end of june, so i'll just wait. then i have 2 years of crime until next inspection.

Most importantly tho....i have a floor jack,stands,and tools. its just take of the old,bolt on the new,right?

 

you can still pass inspection, but you can wait if you want. the install should be pretty easy, ive never done it, but alot of people here have, it takes time, but its nothing you cant do. are you in toms river?

 

Changing pipes is a breeze. The higher you can get the front the easier it will be. It took me like 20-30 min with a floor jack and jack stands.

 

Yes, but be careful not to break any bolts. I broke a bolt on my 02 with only 38K miles on it and I can only imagine how much more corroded your bolts are.
