Default Trick turbo passes Colorado emmisions!

well kind of. I was due for new tags and emmisions this month and got my renewal in the mail. On the renewal it says I passed road side emmisions. Out here there are Vans parked on the side of the road once in a while that when you drive by them they check your smog. Ive heard if you hit 2 of these in a year they will pass you. I was about to put a cat on the truck to get emmisions but guess i won't need to for another 2 years.

Yeah every once in a while when you get on a on ramp there will be a van parked on the side with a sign that says smog testing or somthing like that.

Funny thing is ive been running without cats for a while,lol.
