He should be fine. But...it will depend on how loud he is. Now, here's the trick: There is a DB limit but if the inspection station does not have a certified sound chamber they are not allowed to enforce it using subjective means. I've heard that K-town is very lenient on this issue anyhow.

Val's car isn't loud but mine is twice as loud if not louder than Val's and I pass w/ out a fuss. Well most of the times.  He should be alright. Worse case just stuff some steel wool in the pipe to muffle the sound.

Mine is loud and it passed no problem. The only issue I had was trying to get the inspector out of the car. He wanted to take it on a test drive.

I passed inspection with the SLP Loudmouth on my 1999 C5. It''l be good to see another vette running around. I am actually looking at getting a Procharger D1SC supercharger kit for my vette.
