what mods did you have? exhaust? testpipes or highflo?

sorry to hear but let us know so we can take precaution... i just threw on my stock cats and it blows more than ever .... was going to go back to tp but stories like this scare me since my car stands out with the cage, seats, and all

Sorry, I gave them all away. We are out of stock exhausts at the moment.

Crossroads is a meet I used to attend every Wednesdays. It is on Crenshaw and Lomita in the City of Torrance.

Torrance P.D. are ***** when it comes to this stuff and they on occasion raid the meets.

This is exactly what happened to me in San Diego (meet raided) AND I also got a Ref. ticket WITH my turbocharger on and YES I did have to take it off eventually.

When you mentioned Crossroads, it is of no surprise. One of my buddies who has a Suby told me that they raided and after I heard that, I stopped going. It isn't that big of a deal to me anymore since meets are so boring to me now but the people I did hang out with were tons of fun though.

I try to stay out of Torrance as best as possible and if I do go in there, I drive my other car.

As a word of caution, ALL police departments have the ability to inspect cars, not just the C.H.P.

Technosquare is on Normandie in a heavily industrialised area. You saw cops THERE?

last time i got ref'd they said i didnt need to swap out my exhaust. the ref's are checking for emissions and not noise.

the exhaust dosent need a CARB number. everything else before the cat, intakes, headers, etc need it. they have a listing of all the carb numbers to match.
