Speaking of ricers and mods.....the local CHP motor cop on my street just got back from a CARB training session. Seems they are cracking down on fart tubes....they pull them over and start them on talking about their cars.
They casually ask them to "vountarilly" open the hood.....he had a pic of all the mods that they were trained to look for...anything like intake, fuel rails, timing covers, turbos or exhaust that don't have executive order #s (smog legal approval certs) or look to be be modified now get a ticket with a special sticker that sends them to a smog referee.
They can only drive the car to DMV/referee, work or school until signed off.....he called it the "do not pass go" ticket.....
