Yeah, they are mad strict on stuff like that. Sucks. I want more power but it just isnt easy. Stupid that a gas guzzling SUV is good to go, but you cant do crap to your little economy car. Whatever.

Does anyone else know anything about california nitrous laws

Last I heard is that as long as your not on the road with the bottle open youll be ok...............but thats why they make electric bottle openers ;)

Sorry to make a fast and furious reference, but what about the underseat setup that dom had in the rx7. Is an in the car setup an option. All I have found is scuba tanks for the trunk. Also, is nitrous cool stuff to use. I like the convenience of easy hp increase, but I just trying to decide if it's worth it for me.

if its not stock, its illegal. you cant do ANYTHING to your car in cali and be legal :P. lol. whether or not a dickhead cop trips out about that ---- is a different story. cops usually overlook ---- unless you are driving like an ass, at illegals, etc. even with limo tinted windows and loud ass exhaust(two obvious things that are illegal as ----) ive never had a problem driving alongside cops and not getting pulled over in norcal or socal. driving with a modded car in cali is taking a chance.

GO to your local medical supplies store and get your self a thin cylinder... hide it in the dash somewhere... or where the spare goes... and primer all your solenoids and ---- black... and wrap all y our lines in black wireloom and electric tape..... shiny chrome ---- attracts pigs

you can have the nitrous in the car. thats ok, the illegal part is having the bottle hooked up. u cant drive around with the bottle hooked up. you can leave it unhooked and on race day just plug it up. and your good to go. thats all. ;D

get yourself a quick release fitting like they'd use on an air compressor where the bayonette hooks up to the air line. put it in line between the bottle and the solinoid nd you're legal, no big deal.

we don't have laws regarding cars here in new mexico. If you're speeding you get a ticket, everything else is legal.
