    Is it legal to run Intercoolers in CALI? whether your motor is factory S/C or not?

    Talk to a reff near you though to make sure . But I asked my reff here in Fullerton a lot of questions and evrything is pretty much a go besides cam and nitrous and such.

    Yeah, that Cam is what I really want though. Lot of people say I might be able to pass smog if its a mild cam with a good tune. Where could I find a reff down here?

    Hey!!!! I remember seeing that thing on craigslist! Thats great someone from here actually bought it. I was afraid of it because it looks like its gonna br a pain in the ass to get it smoggable, and although its got alot of aftermarket parts it looks like its been drivin pretty hard. Plz let me know if u plan on parting it out or need help with it!

    Should be in all honesty I think at the most you can do can wise is a xp if you wanna pass smog with a good tune. It also really depends a lot on the person that smogs you're car some are very strict others not as much and don't even care about headers or intake as long as there is no SES Light on and you have a cat that works. But to me smog isn't a issue it's the reff since I am going XPZ and E85 on my car lol

    Yeah it was on there for literally one day. Couldn't pass up the deal lol at the moment I doubt it will be parted it out since I really want to get it running good.
    I have a thread started about it on here on the L67 section with some videos this is the most recent one.

    Damn, u going XPZ AND E85....WOW, that E85 alone might not pass smog. Im pretty focused on getting the VS cam, should be a lil easier to tune out plus it doesnt change the exhaust idle/lope as much(exhaust sound is one thing the smog technician listens for). My most worry is spending the money to do this, installing it and then not being able to pass smog. Either I would have to garage the car OR start turning the wrench again to put the stock one back in

    Yeah but smog isn't my worry if I can't pass it right I can do under the table it's the reff that worries me.
    You should be good with vs cam and not much modification needed to use it which means less things to worry about I'd u need to go back to stock.
