Basically you can not make ANY changes whatsoever beyond OEM to your exhaust system.

Also before some idiot tries to throw CARB in my face.... this has NOTHING to do with SMOG so having headers with a carb number doesn't mean shit. You will get cited for 27151 (a) Modified Exhaust.

F'n Thank You! It makes no sense to me at all. I hate a lot of Cali laws. But there is no where else that is like the bay and the weather we have [Frown] I'm trapped! Let's rally to change state borders and get the bay area to be part of Arizona or somewhere else that has more lenient gun/smog laws [patriot] F it lets drag the texas border over here [Big Grin]

Hi, my name is Jimmy Herrera aka 91Trunkster (510)375-1589 and I got snitched out by my friend or friends. Ain't that a bitch, some one or some people would rat out my fake account here to keep their own secret fake account? If you all forgot, I'm an old ass 30 something year old "man" that likes to make internet friends with boys fresh out of highschool. I like to post "bruh" a lot just like the annoying immature and ghetto CAFords kids do. I like to talk shit about this website, make it look bad, all the while trying to make and save money off of other members here. Some may call me a selfish immature bitch. Deep down I know they are correct, it's not like I have anything else going on in my life or anything but negativity to offer this community. This is a free site. Suckers spend good time and money to keep this website going. They're suckers for doing so, so fuck them, I'm going to take them for all they got. It's all about me in this world.

Who is the next troll or just plain annoying post whore to get the boot???

Ever heard a bone stock Harley? the tires are louder than the pipes are. 99% of guys dont leave the showroom floor with them. Not to argue though bugs the shit outta me they pull over cars left and right but harleys run around straight pipe all day and NEVER get cited

Actually it does, bikes can split lanes and sometimes it's hard to see them, so they are loud so you can hear them [Wink]

It is kind of gay considering Flowmaster is based out of Santa Rosa...
