Yea, I figured that was the case.  However, I can't imagine any smog testing place putting it on a rack and checking it out.  Plus, I don't think they'd know the difference if they looked.  Of course, it would be a risk I'd have to be willing to take. 

If I was going to put an aftermarket one on, I'm thinking the Quicksilver model looks really well made.

Does anyone know of an aftermarket replacement for the factory unit? I'd want to retain all sensors, maybe gain a few HP, and not have it much louder than stock.

Thanks!

Sorry, California compliant means OEM only....

If its just the flex pipe then any decent exhaust shop should be able to replace that

Mini's are like buses they come along in a bunch
