Ford Mustang Converting To True Dual Exhaust

Hello. I'm interested in installing the Pacesetter V6 Dual Exhaust Adapter Kit on my 1998 Ford Mustang with a 3.8 liter engine. I plan to do it the right way and weld it to the original catalytic converters. Will this pass the smog check visual inspection?


Answer:  

California considers any exhaust system modification, before the catalytic converter(s), an emission system tamper. It appears the PACESETTER V6 DUAL EXHAUST ADAPTER KIT is a CAT back system, meaning it is installed after your Ford Mustang's catalytic converters and after the oxygen sensor.

This installation should not cause a smog check failure in California. We recommend contacting Pacesetter technical team at (602) 266-1964 for confirmation. And if need be the Bureau of Automotive Repairs at (800) 952-5210.
