lKirchner,
thanks. who did the RT work-Kronen Tuning or other? also, any reason you chose RENNtech versus Kleeman (is CA Carb approved?)/Carlsson/Brabus etc. condsidering RT-1-thought about Kleeman-1. Adam at Kronen (Fremont) seems like pretty good guy...thank you.

Passing sniffer in one thing, the visual completely another. As I am running primary race cats only, I would not pass visual. Last time around I did pass sniffer, did not bother to look under the car. Lower it all of the way down prior to pulling in.

headers are somewhat subtle but not chrome ones, would have to get them coated to minimize the 'show' - which sucks...
tired of looking for those "look the other way" testing stations - I just don't hang in that crowd
I'm definitely in the boat of - if it blows clean, who cares what it looks like?

well, if I posted a new thread you'd say "search"
I searched, and bumped because I couldn't find more info...
so what's your preference? post new? or bump old?
just because you don't have to have CA smog doesn't mean it's not important to others
