    Default Question on emissions, NCT and changing an exhaust??

    I have the Nct on the 180sx on may 20th, now i have an aftermarket exhaust system (apexi) and have no cat in the car. so i know im fucked on emissions.

    If i change back to a standard exhaust system will i have to change from the turbo back??

    Also should this be enough to get the car through??
    the car is mapped also.

    What year is the car ?
    I'd just put a cat in if it's post 1993.
    You're far better of with the car mapped anyway.
