You know nothing about the red key until you drive the red car!

I give the Boss a few months before police are checking to see if you run the red key. They'll even be checking on non-boss models

FWIW I read somewhere that the Red Key was actually emissions legal, so that's not a worry.

Doesn't it change quite a few parameters in the car? (i.e. ignition timing, launch control, rev limiter, etc)

It changes 200 different things.

It likely is, but it's not tested, so you'd be due for a new inspection if you changed it. Plus most cops are just going to assume it's illegal. It's just something easy and new to write a ticket for.

Well, you won't have an issue if you carry both keys.

Probably not. You never know man.

I've had officers not care about my s2000 (which was pretty much illegal in every way it could be, except it wouldn't serve alcohol to minors), and was ticketed more than once for "suspension modification" when I had LCA's and Koni yellows on my mostly stock Civic. If word of the "red key" gets around, there will be certain officers that will harass people for it.
