California, Upgrades and such Options

[Random_Stranger]

I know nothing of what will pass for smog and what will not. Is there anyone here off the top of their head that knows what performance upgrades you can do with your car, including exhaust etc, that will still pass for smog in the sucky state of California? I know this is asking a lot but since this state smogs and I am not willing to find a way around ($$$ *Wink *Wink) unless I had some Heavy engine swap done. Anyone? I appreciate any replies. Even if you say something like "Vinyl!". Already said it! LOL

Someone tell me where I can get the cat for the two exhausts please. $1100 doesn't sound too bad right now. There will be time to think it over though if needed. I am in no big rush. Need those lights changed first, need rims, and a drop. Then begins the tinkering....

you can make a custom cat-back exhaust with a y-pipe for the dual mufflers.

That's what I figured. Some guy was selling a Kyo-- something that was a dual cat for the 7gc. Perhaps I could get my hands on that with some custom piping and take it to someone here in town. Any idea how much it usually runs for labor on custom piping or did the $1100 or whatever pretty much fall along those lines? I would imagine so. Oh well. I might go that route. It was just in case I decided to go wtih this one back end that had two spots for exhausts. I would think it would look silly if I got that back end and had just one exhaust to fill in only one spot.
