yep, my parents want me to be safe and leagle thats why i was wondering if a strait was leagle on the fit. they dont mind if i mod, i just have to get their "ok" to do it

since emissions are not strict in texas you could pass with it.

I couldn't find an article stating the specific decibel level, but usually anything that doesn't exceed 95 decibels is legal.

you might as well take off the stock axle back it sounds better than stock. also run a cat or high flow not straight pipe its cleaner. you would probably lose bottom end in doing so

CAI are worthwhile as long as your staying NA. The stock airboxs on these things are fairly restrictive. Just be warned that CAIs have a risk of hydrolocking the engine because the filters are lower to the ground (near the driver fog light). Of course if you have a bypass in the pipe you won't have to really worry about that happening.

id buy the intake first. as you can have the exhaust fabbed up at any local muffler shop. the intake might not be there that long and is cheaper now to buy it used than to buy it new. thats just my opinion
