Yeah, they do contradict each other. There was a law in Michigan I think, that prevented aftermarket exhausts from being put on, despite it being better for the enviroment/being more efficient/increasing performance. I don't know if it got shot down or changed, I think it did, but it's just crazy nonsense like that that makes it harder for companies to bring their cars here.
