3A92 1.2L Mirage exhaust header by SuperCircuit

[cyclopathic]

There are two catalytic converters in the Mirage, so installation of headers would eliminate the primary CAT. Emission test would be affected, but by how much?



It can be noted also that there is no flex pipe in the exhaust system. There are only two sets of spring bolts that gives some flex when the engine vibrates. The first set is between the exhaust manifold and the second set is between the two converters.

As someone living in area with mandatory tests they amount to checking engine light, gas cap test, visual inspection for exhaust leaks and obd2 code read. Not sure about California they have stricter rules. As I've heard you can only use oem converter, the one car was certified with. Now to what extend it is enforced do not know, it probably depends on location. From what I've seen they are not very competent to say the least. Had car fail inspection for faulty starter code.
