Well got my inspection sticker yesterday. Funny thing I call up asking if I can get it in and they said to bring it in. I pull in and told the guy who I was. Conversation goes as follows:
Him: Thats pretty loud.
Me: Thats a good thing.
Him: I can't inspect that.
Me: Why not?
Him: That won't pass inspection like that. (keep in mind he hasn't even looked at the vehicle).
Me: Why not? The cat and muffler are on it.
Him: Oh? What kind of muffler is on it.
Me: Just a special kind. (Like he would know what a Buschur Racing Bullet Muffler is.)
Him: Ok.
He then get me inspected.
I bet he says that to the Harley's that pull in as well. I never had a problem with him before, but never had this car to him since this was my first inspection. Kind of ticked me off, but since I don't want the hassle of going to another person. Oh and we don't have to get emission testing done.

I doubt he is a hater of loud import cars only - sounds to me like he heard how loud it was and assumed it did not have a muffler or cat in place, once he was told everything was in place he was fine....I don't see the problem - he was covering his own butt

Many lessons have been learned....Bottom line it WAS out of square.....It needed to be square , not diamond shaped... Five months later we are ready to start all over.......Now for the mental health cost..They can all be cured by one thing.....
Taking the beast for a run around the track....Happiness....
Merry Christmas to all....
