Saving my Benjamin’s for the inevitable engine rebuild. I live in CA so I will likely at some point get a love letter from the DMV registration that will require me to get smog certified in order to get my tags. My questions are many, but the focus is this:
1. how much HP can I get/increase and still pass smog?;
2. Have to pass the visual inspection, too, so must keep the motor looking Plain Jane(aluminum heads are a dead give away);
3. Keep in mind I have the 4 cats on the exhaust system, the standard for my ‘95 Snake.
So, what are my options to increase HP over stock and still pass smog?
