why would you want to swap a newer vehicle? half the stuff he did (headers and such) fall under the same rules so this obvioulsy isn't an issue. plus his truck is around 25 years old, so what are you calling a newer vehicle?
Near as I can tell nothing he did eliminated any emissions equipment. Headers and performance parts aren't illegal, as long as all the sensors and emissions equipment are still intact.
Being "around 25 years old" is not good enough. Here in NY it has to be a 1999 or older this year to be exempt from emissions testing. Once it hits that magic 25 year mark, he could swap anything in that he wanted.
This truck has no EGR or any emission control except a CAT and front O2 sensors.
The truck runs great and definitely has more power. At 1500 rpm, you can feel an increasing amount to the power
good thing he isn't in NY and even if he was I believe his truck is a 1999, hence the around 25 years old which would date it to 1999. in cali I believe my buddy told me just switching to headers is a fail unless your car is old enough to be exempt. Its a good thing I am in Canada and I can delete my diesel with out anyone whining about it. I took my milage from 13.6 L/100km to 10.8L/100km (empty) with just the emission on tunes, with the truck camper I went from 18L/100km to 14.9L/100km, and pulling the 5th wheel I went from 22L/100km to 19.7L/100km.
I have the delet kits sitting in the garage waiting for the winter to put them on so I can't wait to see how much more fuel efficiency I can unlock.
