honestly i dont know you would have to ask someone else i dont have to pass emissions in wisconsin where im located.

 

looks like you've got a nice setup, just dont cheap out on exhaust anything, you'll regret it. And depending on what state your in, yea you might fail emissions, unless your in Cali though you really dont have to worry about it.

And if you REALLY are going to swap in the future, i say dont even worry about this engine, save all your money for the swap

 

Seriously if you are doing a swap don't drop the 1k plus to put I/H/E on the D17.

 

^ +1if you've really got $$$ for those quality I/H/E components you listed earlier, you're alreayd well on your way to having enough money for a swap. Any engine in mind?

Live with the OEM I/H/E for a while (lol i know its hard) but then when you swap all the waiting will be worth it

 

just speaking from experience (which i wish i never had to go through)...

you should make sure any non-oem parts are approved for your vehicle by your state. i had a DC exhaust manifold in my 99 civic and upon dmv inspection, it didn't pass. Why u ask?
It was because the exhaust manifold was only applicable on non-LEV vehicle (my 99 ex was classified as a Low Emissions Vehicle). Soooo, save time and money, dig through google and find if the manifold or anything else is applicable for you vehicle in your particular state. calling dmv smog center for advice on parts will illeviate any future potential problems.

good luck!

 

to tell ya the truth, i just got like a big insurance check from a deceased relative that i barely knew...
i know its sad... but hey i got a little bit of money now...

but yea... u guys have changed my mind... i think im just gonna save it all for an engine swap...
that opens up new problems, because i have no idea wat to get!
i know they go like b16, b18, nd b20
anyone wanna shed somelight on it for me?
