Got a Ref ticket...:-(
hey guys.... got pulled over today. the coped came out of no where. I swear he was camping out waiting for me to leave the parking lot. Cave me a ticket for (27156 (C), 27516, and 26700 A) smog violation due to DP, exhaust ( i have a borla Hush) and front tinted windows.
Do I need to put the stock turbo back on too? Do i need to get rid of my gauges? Why can;t I find a list of REF stations?
Man I am a little traumatized right now .... dam it!!! all those hours of work and now i need to change it all back!!!!.
are fuel rails legal?

Unless it has a Carb number you'll have issues with anything at the ref. I had an aem fuel set up on my Honda and it wouldn't clear ref. It did pass with a Cai and headers. Both stickered. And a cam/adjustable cam gear set to zero and covered. Adjustable cam gears also will fail. Cant mess with timing eitdher.

The worst part is that I do have a high flow cat that I bet will pass emissions. It is in the upper portion of the DP. Cop said nope that is not a cat. It was a cop in a truck too... I thought he was trying to get by, until he followed me around the corner.
Who knows... I might do a part out... Idk. But trust me.... I wouldn't be selling the stuff at rock bottom prices.... So don't get. Your hopes up yet.
