I've seen cars pusing 300whp daily driven. It's all about tuning and qualilty/condition of the motor and kit. My car is daily driven for 2k miles so far absolutely zero problems.

I dont live in cali so I dont have to deal with that B.S. You can get a new greddy kit with the carb sticker for 2,999 I believe. I put my kit together for under 1,500bucks but certainly wouldnt pass emissions in cali

I have a 2000 ULEV Accord so I won't be smogging the car anytime soon but I haven't had any trouble with cops yet (knock, knock).

if your registered in cali then you will get popped if you get pulled over. im not registered in cali and i still got popped for it. now i gotta go to court just to explain that i dont need to worry about emissions in my registered state...and im also military.

****** BS. took picutres of my engine bay and everything. i told the cop i was military and i dont do emissions in Ga....she wasnt listening.

damn, you think 210 is good. i hate that i only get 250 out of mine. im running 450's tho

gas mileage........its the only thing i hate about being boosted....but if you wanna do it you gotta pay the price
