It's basically country-wide now. That's the reason DT headers and Borla exhaust etc are on such long backorder or discontinued. The EPA issued new guidance a few years ago and fired a shot across the bow of all aftermarket companies. They hit the biggest offenders with several million dollars in fines. The EPA states that CARB exceptions can be used to prove compliance nation wide.

A cat back exhaust or headers do not affect emissions from a vehicle, but unfortunately now the onus is on the manufacturer to submit to testing with CARB or EPA to prove that it doesn't. Basically if you are Borla or Magnaflow etc they just ruined your business model.

Glad I was able to get my DT LT's in April of 2021. EPA has stepped up enforcement in all areas and is stretching the interpretation of existing rules across the board under the current EPA administration. It's causing a lot of headaches and uncertainties in lots of industries and affects our entire economy.

Same. I spent a s***load of money on my truck in 2021/2022 because I kind of saw the writing on the wall. Didn't stop others from calling me a conspiracy theorist though...

This is disheartening

The Nomad valve body is awesome. I also put one in my truck. It was an easy install and totally worth the money. If I had known how good it would make the truck drive it would have been my first mod.

Thread revival time!

@CruiserBrothers no longer list the Nomad valve body. Anyone know of any stateside distributers? Not stoked on the shipping from AU and return shipping the core.

Our friends Johnny & Ryan at “Cruisers & Company” in Boulder CO are taking over the US distribution and will be happy to help.

FWIW, I have the Nomad VB in my personal 100-series and I’m very happy with it.
