California emmissions

I was checking out the Edge products (ez and comp) and it looks as though they are both illegle in California. Of course that is no supprise we aren't allowed to have fun in California, all we can do is pay taxes and tripple DMV registration fees.<br>Sorry for the soap box.<br>Does anyone know of any performance electronics that are legal in Ca.?<br>Maybe all I can do is exhaust and breather?<br>Thanks for any imput.

Re:California emmissions

I dunno about the mods, but I think everyone should move out of California to protest the idiocy of the government there. If you move to another state you won't have to pay their stupid taxes and they won't get your money. In another state you can probably keep your lights on all year too. ;D<br>Oops, was that a soap box. ???<br><br>Chris

You don't smog a diesel in California, and the beaches in Montana suck.

Re:California emmissions

Yea you are right you don't have to smog them, but it still is a no no. I guess the only thing to worry about is if CHP sees too much smoke. <br>Who knows what the fine would be, 15 to life? I think you can get more time for breaking smog laws than killing someone ???.<br>Never liked the beach much, too many people.

<br><br>Well all I have to say here is YOU (being general with the word &quot;you&quot voted him in and to make it worse BACK IN!!! Dont leave the state. Just make it right. First by getting him out, then start by splitting the state in North and South. Let the liberals have the bottom to ruin. I just read that CA. will now be enforcing exhaust noise laws. If you are noisy you get a fix it ticket then you have to go to a smog station to see if you are above 95db. This kind of law making is making this a very unpopular state. And this crazy out of control law making is not just in CA.<br>Dont know what is legal in CA. Not sure anything is but I do know we have real nice beaches and there are a few nudey ones too.
