Default cali guys help me out

Im moving to the riverside area and have heard that having true duals with dumps is a big no no out in Cali. I would rather not have to switch out systems especially considering im only gonna be out there for two years. Thanks for the help

Then never register your car here. Leave it registered in TX.

Keep it looking smog legal and you should be fine. You can even get away with doing stuff that isnt said to be smog legal, just as long as it isn't too radical or anything. The dual exhaust should be all cool as long as you make it look like there is smog stuff on the car. I have noticed a lot of cops pulling over domestics lately and popping hoods, which is weird cause they usually only do it to imports.

like already stated, as long as you can pass smog, and dont do anything stupid around the po po you'll be ok. they generally leave domestics alone compared to how bad they rape on the ricers. or just leave it registered in texas.
