Will these exhaust systems pass a visual inspection in California

I'm in the market for an exhaust system for my 2012 SS, My choices are SLP's Loudmouth I & II or Borla's S-Type. Does anyone know if these will pass a smog/visual in California?. I've read several threads but none really give a straight answer, Thanks advance guys.

Behind the cat converters you can do whatever you want as all if affect is noise level. I guess you might get a ticket for excessive noise, but the smog guys guys don't care....they care about in front of the Cats like headers and other power adders that don't have a CARB stamp or sticker.

So the SLP loudmouth not having a muffler is not gonna be an issue in the future?, thanks for the quick reply man.

no mufflers will not be a problem. unless you gun it next to a cop. muffler delete is not that loud. i drive cammed, cutouts daily. which is WAY louder. no problems. i am not dumb with it.

go for it!
