If you have a TII and you get the FULL TURBO BACK then its illegal. Noise level though is LOW. Horsepower wise is HIGH.

Removing ANY original emission thing is illegal, at least in Cali.

However, reality is that its all about being smart about what you do, how you do it, where you do it, and when you do it.

But, that applys to alot of things.

That's a good thing! I'd rather not be loud and put out a lot of HP than be a stupid ricer with a Civic DX Type R Mugen Spoon and get like 1 hp.

Its what i like about ROTARIES!..they adopt to mods really good. If you have a civic and put an upgraded exaust its loud but you dont feel any hp gain unlike out cars you put exaust and the power gain is very noticeable!..Thank god for the rotaries!
