US emissions compliance note

In the United States, modifying, removing or disabling emissions-control equipment (including DPF*, EGR*, SCR*/DEF* and catalytic converter systems) on a vehicle used on public roads may violate the federal Clean Air Act and EPA rules, and in California and other states that follow CARB standards, additional restrictions apply. Any off-road, race or competition-only modification described here is not intended for street use. Nothing in this article claims that any product or calibration is EPA- or CARB-certified or street legal. For guidance on options for your vehicle, contact Viezu USA.
