You really only need the sticker if you live in california. In most every other state they dont care.

You can pass almost any turbo setup on a honda as long as its tuned right and you have a cat -- emissions wise. Hondas run clean.
I passed my civic with a custom turbo kit and a built motor in colorado without a problem. They popped the hood, said cool car, and pulled it onto the rollers. Passed like whoa.

Why in the world would adding an intercooler make a turbo setup illegal?
Adding an intercooler isn't going to change the emissions output of the car at all.

It doesnt - but the kit was emissions tested without the FMIC - so by adding one it would void the carb cert - making it illegal to drive on the street.

or put it on afterwards...
i would have to say that is one of the most fucked up things about this country.. the lawmakers dont know **** about the subject there making laws about.. you would think they would pay someone to reccomend the right things instead of going off half cocked and making a bunch of bogus laws
its fucked

I thought the kits didn't come with a BOV. I thought the BOV was what made it illegal. Not an IC

Greddy intercoolers are CARB legal... they even come with the little tag that says they are...
