as long as you have all your cats, you'll be fine...BOV has nothing to do with it what so ever...

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.
