Default Cops tryin to take away all the fun

In southern california there are checkpoints that cops set up with emissions dynos. Like a dui checkpoint but looking for carb unfriendly cars and hot parts. Anybody else outside of this area have to deal with that bulls**t?

Interesting. How do they target cars? Are these emissions tests only or do they do a full visual?

im guessing that if they see a car with just about any aftermarket performance parts or they hear a bov they will pull you over but that would just be my guess

Target whatever cars they feel like. Usually ricey cars and older cars that run like sh*t. Visuals too.

Thats just kind of the price of this hobby. You either have to deal with it or keep your car stock or buy an American car.
