    I bought my doug thorley headers years ago and recently discovered the sticker I originally received to place under my hood is no longer the method to show CA legal ID numbers. I received a welded badge from Doug Thorley, welded on the header, and now the smog station is telling me my badge number that recently was fixed doesn't correlate with my vehicle.

    Did someone send me the wrong badge? JW if anyone has had this type of experience until I can talk with someone at DT on Monday.

    Yes, ive had this problem with DT shorties. The CARB eo number welded onto the manifold was the incorrect one. Their tech dept know about this problem. But it wont help with smog. Your best bet is to find a different smog place.
