Hey guys,

My name is Justin and I drive an 07 STI. As my screen name suggests, I'm from Arkansas. I moved to incline Village last December to work, ride, and study teaching in the grad program at SNC. I'm not a car expert by any means, but I can install most parts with a good writup. I look forward to meeting some of you guys at the meets.

As for the advice I need. I will be moving to South Lake, CA for work next month and I will eventually need to get my car registered in CA. The issue is that I have a full Cobb turbo-back. As you guys know, the DP is catted, but CA is strict about their visual inspection and the new higher smog standards. I was wondering if you guys knew a "good" inspection shop to take it too. If that's not an option, I was wondering if any of you had access to a stock DP and perhaps would assist with me swapping it out for the inspection. It seemed like this was the best thread to post something like this.

Thanks,
Justin
