In California, what can I even do to my truck? :(

[CaliMagnetic]

I already ordered the Borla ATAK, so that will be my first mod. But beyond that, it looks like downpipe, intake are off limits.

Turbo Adapters a possibility? Anyone else in CA modding their raptor?

Thanks in advance

I have a Borla S exhaust and the Roush intake. You can run downpipes with cats or without as long as they don't throw a code. The smog check now consists of just plugging the computer into the truck and that's it. They don't do the sniffer test anymore. They might do a visual inspection under the hood, so it helps to keep the stock intake just to change it out.

^ They do a visual check for cats.

It depends on the county but some counties only require a smog when you sell it. Some are every three yrs. some every year.

OP you can probably find a CAL CARB certified intake. Then just do intake, catback and a tune and that's how you roll in cali

I was about to say... use it to tow a trailer full of your stuff to another state.

Seriously, though, all smartassery aside, California is just a tough place to live if you have a car/truck hobby that goes beyond aesthetic and/or suspension/brake mods.

Couldn't agree more. Long travel and send it.

Are you sure? Just did a smog recently and they put it on rollers, sniffer, visual, the full thing.

California has some of the best desert to run in. Where should he move Canada pffft. Say hi to Justin for us.
