Federal or california emissions

There is no emmissions sticker under the hood. On the door it states"This vehicle conforms to all applicable federal vehicle safety and theft preventions standards."

Does this mean that I do not have to put a carb cat on here if the state I register it in does not require a carb cat. Am I good to go with a EPA cat?

 

If you live in Lala land (Calif.) You'll have to install a carb-compliant cat. If outside in the normal USA. just any cat for it will do.

 

this. Which CA cats cost a lot more. Smog station likely going to either ask for a receipt, check for stamp plaque on part, or both.

 

That Cali state is F’d up with emissions

 

You in Ca.? In a more Cat. friendly state? I wish our icons stated where a member was located.

 

If you also own a locomotive you will have to be in compliance.

There aren't too many people who own their own locomotive, but almost every good you own has been on a train at some point.

 

They do. Just depends how you have your profile set up.

 

I’m in Mass, we have to get our trucks inspected every year at $35 a pop, but they just plug into your OBD to make sure your ball joints are good make sure your horn works all your safety stuff and all set​
