    The most annoying about this is how cops do not do this for their own. I have a built sti and have been stopped many times and just bc I'm law enforcement, I have been let go immediately. Yes it's nice but it sucks that not everyone is treated the same way. It seems off that I even said that since I am benefitting from it but I can just imagine what someone with a higher rank/more power than me can get away with and its scary. Also, come on corporations pollute our planet way more than a car with a DP would, but that circles back to what I was saying, the more power, the more you can get away with.

    No what I applied for a postion out in CA a few weeks back at my company since they need a class A or B driver.. I'm kinda happy they didn't pick me, I wanted to much to move anyways. But, after watching these types of videos, I don't think I'd be able to tool around with the EVO X out there.
    The only thing I have is
    Before I had to install the OEM Cat back into the car, I had an aftermarket high flow in there.
    TurboSmart Dual Port BOV
    ETS Intake
    HKS Hi-Power Dual Exhaust System
    So, I'm wondering if I'd be safe to live and cruise around out there with what I have on the car now.

    Cobb Stage 1 & 2 OTS are CARB legal. A custom tune/pro tune is not CARB legal.
    Also there are many brands that are CARB legal but they only run up to a certain number series. So it can be confusing, for example, if you purchase an AEM intake that is legal and one that isn’t.
    Glad your ride is back on the road.
