F all that. I had a catless car years ago and I took it to get inspected. It passed the smog test but the inspector(white guy) failed it on the visual and commented that it was too loud. I just told him I bought it like that. I went home and spent a few hours trying to get the stock cats bolted up to my headers w/out it leaking. I took it back to the same damn place for the re-inspection. What do you know, the cop wasn't there. This not white guy just asked me if I put cats on it and gave me a sticker. He didn't even look at the car lmao

Also depends on what you drive. A lowered civic is going to get looked at harder than a 600HP Kia, because Kia.. At least out here. :ROFLMAO:

Lol, yea I had another one with all the smog stuff deleted under the hood and long tube headers. I was getting worried bc the techs were looking under the hood for what seemed like 10 minutes. PASS.... :ROFLMAO:

It's there same here. There's discrimination. A mustang would get looked at harder than a Mercedes
Unless you roll up looking like this:

Here in Colorado. There's cameras everywhere. And the equipment consolidates information to one pc. Operated by a single person. Who has a camera on them too. The state made these changes about two years ago. No amount of mayonnaise will get you to pass if you're catless.

That’s how you could claim a “street car” lol
Florida was upset with the rampant fraud and a ton of other reasons. And they did away with emissions all together. Iirc it was early or mid 90's

Everyone is catless there. It's great but pollution is a real thing. Then there's cars that just shouldn't be on the road either due to gross hp builds or due to cars needing a ton of repairs.

I knew a guy that dailied a 800hp LS1 swapped rx7. That's just crazy

What's on the radar?
not sure. I tossed out the $10-20K number. It doesn't have to be fast and I prefer smaller cars:

old volvo P44/123 series. Corvair, Falcon, Chevy II, been seriously considering air cooled VW recently I like looks of square/notchback but beetles are nicely priced and parts are easily available. Lower a bug with a bit of suspension/motor in it and it is sweet.,
I propose RicketyCoin.

Rolls off the tongue and implies instability.
worth repeating
We had a couple motor swap parties one week.
this was highlighted by my "happening near you AND swap party" Google search till I read it more carefully

There's a VW group in you state that has events, plenty of air cooled things there.
