i was looking at this to but i figure i would wait. if your tight on money just get a flowmaster and weld it on the stock pipe. them wait for some extra money and redo the entire thing thats what im going to do.

Was just thinkin' the same thing... It's not one of the stupid laws either. It's a health/safety issue.

read hte wording. in texas, the exhaust must exit past the last opening to the cabin. which means past the rear doors windows for me. on my 79 chevy stepside, it exited right out from under the back of the cab with straight pipes. it sounded badass!!!

but yes, safety reasons. exhaust gas being circulated into the cabin is not so good. first the headaches, then being tired, then you crash and kill someone. and you know that xjs are getting scarce so losing one for a bad reason is even worse then losing one to rust or something. plus losing people who like them is bad too
