I'm surprised I haven't heard of this anywhere. A quick search only pulls up this official bill discussion: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/f...01720180AB1274

So my 2013 purchased on March 2013 won't need a smog check until March 2021 renewal for my 2022 sticker?

I've been holding off on a header because i'm too lazy to have to put it back on in a year lol, but if I have another 2.5 years to hold off it'd be easier.

Correct. Yep I didn't even know about it until another member on here mentioned it.

I'm pretty sure there are other intakes with CARB exemptions on file. Am I missing something here?

I'm sure there are. Make sure you have a sticker to prove it.

Nobody said TRD was the only one. It was just being used as an example
