Okay here's the deal; it's time to start tinkering. The first that went on was a CAI. The next step for me is some headers and tune. Im in north Orange County, CA area.
I want that deep rumble of the long tubes but CA emissions says if you move the stock position of the cats it is illegal and will not pass visual inspection. However our cars are newer and are not subject to inspection for another 3-4 years. I have heard JBA shorties are nice but they dont quite sound like a pair of Kooks LT's. Also if I get LTs and catted mid pipes, I figure if the guy at the smog station questions it, ill just point out the cats, right?
Who here is running some illegal Long Tubes in CA?
If you are, have you been subject to random inspection or a ticket?
Stupid Arnold. Didnt even like the Terminator that much!
I am illegal and have not run into any issues. See my Mods. below. The Cops around my town pay much more attention to blacked-out tails, tint and no front plates.
Not sure what the plan is when smog time comes around; maybe a crooked shop and some $20’s…

Been pulled over twice. Once for 80 in a 30, CHP let me go; he had more pressing issues thank god. Other time was local Danville PD and he just wanted to shoot the chit about my ride and GTO's in general. Those two events mellowed me out big time...
SoCal to NorCal for a smog check, crazy Dude...LOL...

Oh and the drive would be to check out your car....not just the smog.
