Emissions test question
Hello.
I have a few questions for you guys in Utah. I live in Riverton and just bought my first PSD. Its a 97 f-250 completely stock. I want to remove the cat and muffler, but was wondering if it is legal to do so. If it is ok to remove them will i be able to notice a difference in performance? Will it be a lot louder? Thank you for any help you can give me. Sad thing is I feel like a complete D.A. when it comes to Diesels. I have a lot of years of experience with gas motors. I have always wanted a Diesel so now i have one without the approval of the misses. She wanted a newer one, but I'm to much in love with the 93-97 body styles. Sorry to ramble. So any input would be great.

Yeah, its illegal. People do it anyways. Just when it comes time for inspection put the cat and muffler back on or it will not pass. I tried to get through with just a cat delete and needless to say I didn't pass. It will be a lot louder with the deletes.

What ever you do with the exhaust, KEEP the cat. if you go in and fail a test without it you will need to buy a new one and provide proof of purchase to pass. I called ahead and asked if my truck needed it to pass. which it did so I just put it back on for the test. btw it will be coming off again as soon as I get around to it.

This is an old thread, but I'll respond anyway. Of course it's illegal but depending on what county you live in you may or may not need an emissions test. I live in Utah county and have no emissions testing. I believe Salt Lake County does. Seems like the tooele valley doesn't, etc..
I got this from the Utah DMV site. Diesel-Powered Vehicle Testing Requirements For information about emissions test requirements contact the appropriate County Health Department below: Davis County 801-546-8860 Salt Lake County 801-313-6720 Utah County 801-851-7600 Weber County 801-399-7140
