Default clean air act

“The EPA indicated that the regulation would prohibit conversion of vehicles into racecars and make the sale of certain emissions-related parts for use on converted vehicles illegal.” The group continued, “SEMA will continue to oppose the regulation through the administrative process and will seek congressional support and judicial intervention as necessary.”

So I'm guessing this is it for any kind of catalytic converter mods... test pipes, HFC, etc. Can anyone clarify this?

Guys, this is serious stuff. In the Diesel world the EPA has fined many aftermarket companies for mods for 2007 and up diesel trucks( DPF removal's etc.) They are not going after the public, but the manufacturers of said mods. How can you mod anything with nothing to buy.

the EPA can blow me.

I will not run cats. ever.

they have made leaps and bounds in the cleaning up the emissions of vehicles over the last 10 years.

if the EPA wants to clean it up tell them to make the fastest model tesla 50k instead of 130k with options then we could talk. I've driven one and they are kinda badass lol

So that means the parts won't be getting made for us to illegally buy and install anyways. So no more mods due to lack of parts at least anything within emissions, which is virtually all the juicy and powerful parts... I knew it went a little beyond the public.
