Didn't Mass pass that reg a year or so ago? No aftermarket exhausts whatsoever shall be used on a Mass registered vehicle, even if it was altered before that law was in the books?
I find this to be absolutely absurd. The Borla turboback on my WReX actually runs CLEANER than my OEM did. I think these imbeciles look at ALL aftermarket exhausts as just being noise makers. Forget the fact that they may actually run CLEANER.
