ya unless you have friends longtubes wont pass. there are cam's that have been tuned and can pass smog, talk to Pat G to get a spec'd cam. otherwise, start the suspension upgrades so you can actually use the power you currently have instead of spinning them away with those tires.

i was hoping someone would say cam lol tho is the cam guarenteed pass CA emissions or is it a maybe? I want the best and most aggressive but still be legit, i know i can't go TREX style but whats the closest. The reason is because the pigs been trying to catch me riding dirty, but I got beat by a Evo last week, can't let that **** happen again, what about injectors? Ignition **** even spray? How dangerous is a dry shot into the airlid?

There is so many ways to get a car to pass emissions with something "illegal" such as a big cam. But the 224r should pass easy. It won't give you a big gain like the Trex cam but probably another 35 rwhp with a good tune. Get it with a tall enough lsa and no one will ever know its there.

224/224 114lsa is the unwritten size/overlap limit(-4*) for California, you can go with a different duration on the lobes but you need to keep the overlap to -4* or more(-6*, -8*, etc..). I'd also have your factory heads ported and milled or get a set of AFR 205s or 210s(has CARB EO#).

Nope! They'll just extract a few more ponies I'd only worry about a cam and headers effecting emissions, but as others have stated... the 224R cam is perfectly legal for emissions. Sounds pretty good even on a 114 LSA. Good luck with your car!

damage? like $ or real damage?
a 100 shot and someone that halfway knows how to use it wont hurt a thing. I've slapped a 100 dry shot hidden on a stock 98z28 before just to outrun someone. Not the right way, but it can be done
you can find used kits and parts and spend like $250 on a wet kit all the time if you stay on CL. Dry kits even cheaper.
