My car just passed smog, the proper way with my current mods, lol.
I too live in California and have modded my car slowly over the past couple years since I've owned it. I bought my car bone stock down to the factory Ram Air Box and I think it's come a long way in terms of well balanced/quality mods.
You should start saving for a cam and all of the supporting components.
My car dyno'd 365 to the wheel with just my EPS custom specd cam 222/226 115+3, a lid, and catback and it still passes smog.
I DO NOT have headers, but I am looking into getting a set now that I don't have to worry about smog for 2 years.
Call Geoff at EPS and he can spec you a smog legal cam to pass the sniffer.

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.

I meant real damage people keep telling me I can burn pistons or even blow up my manifold or intake lid
because I was really interested in like a 50 shot into my intake lid since its stainless steel and has 2 nitrous bungs, are they right? Or is anything under 100 safe?

Its also easy on the valvetrain because of the newer design on the cam lobes.
The 224 is also a great cam, i'm not sure if they redesigned the lobes. You can't go wrong either way. I drive my car 20k a year so it has to be easy on the valvetrain.
Call Geoff to pick his brain. Awesome advice and service.
