all this talk about finding cheap cats makes me wish i lived in a state with much less smog regulations.

i know there are people running test pipes in california... any hints as to how you get around the smog regs.?

 

I live in siskiyou county, we have no smog and yes it's Nor Cal.

 

Here's a CA smog check map. Siskiyou County is required to have a smog check only upon change of ownership.

put it in after smog or put it on for the smog test

Beer Mod, is siskiyou near chico by anychance? i was just up there and near humbolt Lol....humbolt... i hear a lighter in the background

 

^^^ anybody else smell that? lol

what does enhanced mean??/

 

From my house chico is 2hrs and humbolt is even closer than that

 

o, i asked because one of the buildingsin chicostatecampus is the siskiyou building

 

It means that there are stricter tests in the orange areas. This is where they put your car's drive wheels on the rollers so the engine gets stressed while the test is in progress. Quattros and other 4wd cars are exempt from this. I live in San Joaquin County where we have the enhanced testing. When I was having my gf's car smogged, I asked the smog guy how they would smog a Quattro. He said they would do it the old way... just do a RPM test on it w/ no stress on the engine.

Here's a better explanation:
