    There is a way around CARB in Cali, and a huge percentage of the population has it figured out:

        Yeah....540 is on the other side of the state. We got mountains blocking the shit from Tidewater. We occasionally get some lost WVa'ers, but they usually find their way back...

                  Lulz....Then what would stop the snow and polar bears from taking over the US? We're the only thing productive in the Western Hemisphere! (and that's not saying much!)

                        smog isnt that bad here, if your car runs good youll pass. Cant beat the weather or the ladies.

                            But you can't do shit without rolling through red tape. Out here, shit, I want headers on my e46? Fuck it, cats are coming off. CEL on? No biggie, my lights work, brakes are good, so I pass inspection.

                            I don't have to have my car hooked up to a machine to tell people it's putting out proper values. I don't have to spend the money fixing things so the car passes emissions. I cut cats off and scrap them and make some pretty good coin on the side.

                            POW!

                            We just got a sniffer today at the shop to diag cars. Not for inspection, just for diag. Wonderful tool, but when put in the hands of EPA yuppies, it ruins everything.

                                umm if you didnt know... theres plenty of ways around smog. I bet cali has the most swapped cars on the road ( not just bmws , but nissans hondas toyota ) You really think CARB is going to stop us? What pay someone to smog your shit and dont worry about it for 2 years. Also more than half the cars here do pass on their own. Its not that bad , id rather deal with carb than some shit storms that the east coast gets.
