Are you sure that a skunk2 throttle body is illegal in cali. cuz i heard that throttle bodys dont really have carb numbers and arent illegal. i had one on my car and i passed smog.

throttle bodies dont effect carb at all but carb laws are retarded and demand that all aftermarket parts have one. my smog station turned mine down, you might have just goten lucky
