How do you get by emissions?
For all those people with built up and/or turbo tegs - how do you manage to get by emissions. Bolt ons are one thing. But I doubt everyone tears their engine apart just for emissions once a year to turn it back to stock.

a lot of times if you go to a ghetto place they dont care as much about visual and worry about the sniffer part

You guys have to remember you are in two different states, and CA is more anal then any of the others.
Here in VA, as long as you pass the sniffer, you're good to go. You techincally have to pass a visual, but none of the testing places know what to look for.

I dunno why in ca its such a big deal to pass a visual. It seems to me as long as it passes the sniffer it should be ok. Probably just more money coming in from carb numbers manufactures have to get.

For obd2 cars like yourself you should be able to pass if you properly maintain everything.

If you plan on turboing (just basic drag gen 3 kit) and a couple other little mods like 3" exaust and high flow cat, will that mess up the obd2 readings?
