noooooooooooooo i mean …when the insurance company asks you about the car for example if anything’s done to it to modify the performance of the vehicle… just wondering what all the people here who put sr’s or ca’s in 240’s said…

My insurance company asked me if I had swapped the engine in my CRX for performance, or if I had any other performance mods. Luckily, I got to tell them “Nope, that’s the factory engine for this car” _snicker snicker!_

Those be fighting words!

I dont see the issue of insuring a boosted vech, if spent tonnes on the swap, then you might wanna tell them it has a new engine so if it does get screwed you at least have the ability cover some of the loss…

Tell them you swapped in a smaller engine, if you did the SR swap that is. As I recall, Rob (RS13) did that and got a reduction on his insurance! 😃

Whatever you don’t, forget not declaring it. If they find out that you swapped your engine before an accident, they can actually cancel your insurance policy.

You don’t need a cat. There are no emissions laws in alberta at all. Technically you aren’t supposed to have a widened exhaust, but as long as you don’t rev up like a moron all the time the cops probably won’t hassle you.
