NA KA isn't a safe alternative in cali at all. Your cars are louder. PERIOD. Now if you argued that it was a cheap and fun alternative than SR, that I can understand but it aint gonna keep you under the radar at all.

NA KA build up's are fun, just as fun as it is for a guy that likes to go boosted and internally build as well.
There are advantages to staying NA. Shure turbo charging produces additional power at an affordable price. I appoligize for saying people are stupid for spending extra cash on smog checks in Cali (my perogative), point was, I've done it and plan to do it no more.
Regardless of what people say... Weither an NA KA makes 170whp or even 210whp fact is NA engines are better for longevity, and track use, NA engines make smoother power bands, NA engines can use better effeciency of fuel dumping and atomizing fuel/air (better gas mileage). Some people don't mind spending the additional money on an NA engine as long as it makes the person that built it (comfortable and at a piece of mind)......
If you like your SR good for you, your perogative, but like I said I am comfortable with what I have and what I build...... besides it doesn't matter how much power you have at the wheels especially for those that don't know how to use it on the track (and I see it all the time). Thanks for saying my exhaust is loud, thats how I like it......
