Exhaust for Cali

RE: Exhaust for Cali
I lived in San Diego for awhile. Most peeps had 2 systems for their vehicles. They kept a stock system for smog in their garage and ran full modded exhaust on the vehicle. If they got pulled or needed inspection they put on the stock one. After said smog, they put the modded one back on.

Last smog I had, the guy turned my car on, shut it off and passed me. Said if the engine light isnt on, I should be good to go. Although I am sure if I would have had some system in there, thats when he would have checked
