OEM MCS R56 turbo-back exhaust

Hey...does anyone possibly have a OEM turbo-back exhaust either for sale, trade or just laying around? I am having absolutely no luck passing MO emissions with my current setup (Alta turbo-back). Also interested to see if anyone has a Riss Racing exhaust & is they are content (also to see if they have passed emissions).

Let me know.

Welcome to the community Jeff!

I'd check under the 2nd Gen Modifications section here on NAM to get the status of Riss Racing if you are considering purchasing directly from them.

Sorry I don't have any info for you on this. Curious on your progress with MO Emissions as I am on cusp of doing a turbo back mod myself.

CEL Light Issue

To start, yes. I can't get the CEL off long enought to run a full cycle & then into a testing station. Not sure if the Alta turbo-back would pass or not in MO. Their solution had no effect on the CEL at all. I was told the only way would be to temporarily change back to stock, re-test & do whatever from there.

Possible to do, yes...but a headache. I really just need at least a stock OEM downpipe for starters. I am considering going to a different exhaust than the Alta based on it being a full 3" all the way through. I am not dissatisfied with it, but it is kind of limiting.
