New cars have to pass a million test to be "legal" so it only makes sense that what companies go through shouldnt be thrown out the window as soon as its bought.Bit harsh/unfair maybe yes, but then if you want a faster car.....buy one. If you cant afford it. Bad luck.No one wins wither way sometimes with modded cars (unfortunately) hence the rules.....(been there before and never again)True but a few modified cars on the road is going to have little impact.Over 95% of the cars on the road would be stock.If I keep my modified car and dont buy a new one , I guarantee I will emit less harmful emissions in the next 10 - 20 years than the emissions produced to manufacture a new car.

So max rim 9.0. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78675-taking-on-the-epa/page/3/#findComment-1186221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
