if you get sent to an inspection station, i would say take the cattman y-pipe off...cuz they'll be looking closely for violations because you were sent to the inspection station for a reason....

hey would putting a stock muffler back on at inspections help emissions readings out if you have a y pipe on?
with the baffle would it do anything different for the levels? (i guess at least a stock muffler would make you look less suspect)

I don't think the muffler will matter. If you are getting smogged, make sure the engine is good and hot before you go in, so the lack of pre-cats won't show up. I went in only half warmed up, and the car passed on the second try (back to back). First run it was too cold.
