There is a bigger longer one before the rear axle and a little one after...could I lose the big on all together and run a straight pipe or would that affect my E-test?Huh Also can anyone recommend a good place to get new rear sway bar bushings and end links? Thanx.

The muffler and the resonator are all about the sound ... it's basically the condition of your engine, the cat and your O2 sensors that will determine the outcome of the e-test.

I recommend Moog endlinks, but I buy all my stuff in the states for a fraction of the cost here ... so I can't recommend any canadian supplier - maybe Performance Improvements?

If you want regular econo parts try Crappy tire or partssource.

I see you're in Windsor ... if they have Autozone across the border they stock Moog parts ... the rear ones look more like bolts than anything and they tend to be somewhat generic ... the fronts are more application specific.
