i need to pass smog!!!!!!

so my car is here from hawaii, and i was gona leave the hawaii plates on with no intention of getting cali registration until next year when my hawaii one expires! but because my california license is currently suspended because of the 4 points i got... damn ****! my dad insured it under his name, but ofcourse the cars not reg. here so now there gona cancel the insurance policy unless i reg. in cali...

soO i have cobb catless DP, HKS catback carbon ti, and a short ram! last time i checked all these things equal no smog! im guessing the easiest thing is to just buy a stock turbo back... but can i keep the short ram on??

stupid smog test ruining my life! and another thing, is the FMIC gona be a problem or is that kool??

thanx in advance for any advice

Was that from speeding around the island?

if the short ram has a carb sticker (SPT one etc) then you can leave it on. Stock dp I think is all you'll need to pass smog, catback should be okay

I say just swap back to stock, it's so easy for you. It's not like you have tgv deletes/cams/else mods that make it unfeasible to just pass smog
