HFC, maybe not for me?
So I'm driving my Z the other day and I get lit up by a state trooper. I'm sitting there thinking what now as I offer him my insurance, registration, etc.
He said that I made an improper lane change which I admitted to then he started asking questions about my car. "Why is it so loud, why do you have so much rasp?". I explained I had aftermarket exhaust. He started to look under the car then went back to his.
My heart started to pound as all I could think of were my HFCs which are "ODBII Compliant" per Berk Technologies but it's still not technically legal to swap them out. All I could think of was jail time, court fees, and my life ruined over +5hp and an aggressive exhaust.
He let me go with a warning since I have a clean record and I slowly drove off.
Am I being overly paranoid here or do I have a legitimate concern with running HFCs?
Texas is an ODBII/Scan state for inspection so the sniff/visual is no longer but a random trooper could seriously ruin your day.
Any thoughts on this? I'm considering taking these off and putting my stock cats back on.
