It depend on the testing, But I've read that Long Tube Headers are not legal in cali because it changes the location of the catalityc converters. Mid-Tubes and shorties may be ok. I'm sure a local can chime in. As far as the EGR and Air definately keep them.

you will fail...only heads that you can use are ones that will hook up to the stock y pipe..cause you CAN'T move the cats at all. I believe the only headers that do that are shorties.

i think they also must have a CARB number on them to. I can't fully remember but I thought you had to prove they where CARB approved.

In CA anything you put on your car must have a C.A.R.B number on it. Long tubes will not pass. Sorry but you live in the toughest place in the nation for emsisions.
