It's going to be harder for homebrew downpipe makers as well, since companies like Vibrant are pulling their cats off the market as well.
If that is true, this is going to be a much bigger problem than just exhaust parts. That spells bad news for the aftermarket and especially us.
If you want more power but can't modify your car, you will have to buy a more expensive car. From a cost perspective, the end result may not be that much different and you keep your warranty.
It will kill the hobby though and become a shell of what it is now.
It's a slippery slope...
First they came for the downpipes and I didn't complain, because my car did not have one.
Then they came for the tunes and I didn't complain, because my car was not tuned.
Then they came for the springs and I didn't complain because my car was not lowered.
Then they came for the wheels and I didn't complain, because my wheels were stock.
Then they, ah the hell with it!
Worst case scenario, but people in power love to take away anything that people enjoy. For their own good, of course.
