They are eventually going after anyone who modifies their car for better performance. Things like installing a performance intake or exhaust. Having the ECU chipped to provide more power.

They won’t be happy until we’re all riding trains and bicycles to work.

As others have posted, CARB (EPA on steroids) in Calif has made life miserable to impossible for performance enthusiasts for decades now. Leading to a cat and mouse game of swapping out parts to pass smog checks and then putting stuff back on again. And knowing what parts will not be detected.<>P Huge PITA, with most of the modified cars likely better tuned than the average "legal" ten year old GM POS.
