As long as you have it installed using all Greddy parts and you've got the CARB sticker, it's legal. Depending on the cop, the circumstances around being pulled over, etc, they may hassle you, but they'll do that with something as little as a CARB legal intake. In the end, you'll be legal and you'll be able to prove it if they try to lay a fix-it ticket on you.

If you are that worried about TURBO C.A.R.B.ness get a SC. Its street legal also. But if u have a swap and dont have a BAR sticker you will get popped for either one. Sux that here in cali cops have nothing better to do than tailgate a honda and look for a reason to pull him over. That or they will follow you till you **** up.

"gsr swapped 99 coupe???" So does that mean that he also has the BAR'd sticker for the GSR?
