Depends. Is this TEST ONLY? If the techs are picky and notice it, they'll flunk you on the visual.

I have a Racing Beat dual exhaust on my FD (car is stock otherwise), and a local TO station wouldn't even bother with my car. I had to go to another shop that didn't care I had an aftermarket exhaust and I passed (with super low numbers, BTW).

yes, Test only center......
the car passed smog no problem before I dropped in the BOV so the concern that I have is visual.
