Does cali have a cut off date. Like if you car is made before a certain year you dont have to go by emmsion laws?

That's is not a quick process. But I should have a full one off prototype by the end of the year.

no worries, i decided to go 24v swap instead of turbo

What exactly are the theoretical CARB qualifiers for a successful modification? No increase in emissions (PPM, not total, or they'd never allow FI) of any kind at any time whatsoever? I'd imagine pulling that off with a turbo would push you toward thermal coatings to get the cat lit off quickly (probably why new OE systems have the cat bolted right to the turbo).

In fact, I'm rather surprised the e30 does as well as it does on emissions given that the cat is halfway under the car; most of the 80s cars I've seen have an air pump for the cat, and run the engine a bit rich to keep numbers in line, never mind EGR and other things we all love to not have on our cars.

I do plan on making a CARB legal kit as long as it does not cost me over $5k for the testing.

I consider myself a car person but if you popped the hood of half the cars on the road i'd probably have no idea whats not oem aside from obvious things like intake, fpr, shiny red and blue stuff.
