tough meaning u either need to know someone who will look over it, or someone who may not know....like a lil mom and pop shop......usually old timers either dont know or dont care.....at least in my experiences.

why waste the money in the first place it's not like it makes the car any faster and most of the time it's tachy rice. sure you could put the money into something else better like a full exhuast to maxiumize your intake

any car that came with airbags, MUST STAY WITH THEM. you cant change them in NY, period, legally. if you are gonna change it, do it yourself, this way you chan change it out before your inspection, unless your like me and work at a dealership...

Brother, before giing advice using terms like rice..you may wanna brush up on your tuning knowledge 101.

ie":...." better like a full exhuast to maxiumize your intake"

Not trying to start nothing but....c'mon man.

As far as the Steering wheel..it's like that all across the baord..Its illegal to tamper with thr factory equipped airbag.perios. But the Mom and Pop shop is an excellent back door solution.




Say it with me, "Its not what you know...It's what you can prove"

I like the whole Knowing someone situation. Most of the people don't want to touch our kinda modded cars for liabilty reasons. They know how well u take care of your car... Pay them $20 bucks. No one messes with your stuff and you get your sticker. Guy makes $$ for lunch. This has how its been for me for 2 years now.
