I understand this. Just was curious to who was out there. I rarely see anyone moded in Santa Barbara. Kind of gets lonely here when most of everyone lives in the LA area.

While I agree with the "not attracting attention" statement, don't make broad generalizations that people may take to the streets and get in trouble with.

The OP asked specifically about So-cal, and I can tell you that MANY, not all, cops from so-cal have no clue whats going on with after market parts.

Not all of California has training classes for the officers. If they did then my friends would have a clue whats going on under my hood don't you think?

I know San Diego and San Bernardino have special street racing units but not over here where I live.

And if anyone decides to change their setup and "take it to the street" based off of one guys opinion on the internet then they deserve a ticket.
