    I think it's mainly because the EPA has been really going hard after anyone manufacturing/installing products that delete/defeat emissions equipment the past few years so many companies that were doing it have been shut down and most others have discontinued such products out of fear they will be next.

    Initially they were just going after the ones making stuff for diesels but now it seems they have everyone in their sights that is modifying/deleting emissions equipment.

    This is the truth.
    They pulled the O2 simulators about 1 year ago.
    Back when shops were getting hit with multi-million dollar fines for “tunning” trucks.

    Can’t say I blame them.

    I will say, there is a vendor on here I admire.
    As they haven’t yet rolled over and given in.
    I don’t want to mention them. As they don’t need attention brought to them.
    But the 2012 owners should thank them :thumbsup:

    But it’s all for “off-road use” … smh. This is all new because I was about to buy them, didn’t, and then after the holidays they’re gone. WTH

    Well as of 2012 Off-Road vehicles/equipment over ~35HP have to meet very similar emissions standards as on road vehicles (and they of course know the majority of people using "offroad products" are using them on the streets), I agree it sucks but currently that's what we are stuck with as they continue to try to push everyone to electric vehicles.
    I don't agree with it but I'm not gona say anymore as these type discussions typically end up going down in flames and getting locked/deleted.

    I have their equal length headers and simulators in my garage that I've been wanting to install for a year now but other stuff has prevented me from taking the time to make it happen.

    There are other long tube options but none are equal length as far as I know.

    All just about emission which we hab been doctrine and told the car is no 1 cause the pollution which if we can see 18 wheels, mid truck and diesel train even air plane none of that use catalyst converter plus in 50 states how many of them doesn't require state emission inspection..... just a thought!

    @hx989 is first in line...if I sell them. I'm on the fence though and will probably install them later this year.
