Incorrect... When I use to work at a muffler shop we refused to work on cars often due to the fact that they did not have a catalytic converter. The shop can actually be fined for it.

i know my big als would take care of it, but i see you're in newport news...there is probably one up closer to you. they shouldnt have a problem doing that since they didnt install the test pipe.

Big Al's by main street... careful how you approach the situation tho... act cool and calm and let him know that it's wrong and illegal.... tell him you don't have the cash to change it now but you will change it later... tell him you'll sign a paper if neccessary to relieve them of fault or whatever.... just act like like you wanna do whatever neccesssary to get it put on... i drive a 2003 gti... i just got a whole aftermarket exhaust put on over there and i don't have a catalyctic converter... just don't go over there acting like a dumbass and you'll be straight


--Shizz i'm late... lol... wtf this isn't my username...
