wouldent you be able to get a adjustable flow fuel regulator and lower the fuel input?
im just guessing here - you have to be able to measure it somehow

It all depends where you live. In Cali if your mods are not CARB approved you won't pass a visual. From what I understand either you take it to someone you know and or bribe a "shady" SMOG station official.  Elsewhere if your car smells good enough to the sniffer and has no visual violations (ie all emissions equipment intact no obvious hazards) that is good enough. In some places having 4 tires is all you need. Find out what the laws in your area are concerning vehicle modifications and then ask people in your area that have cars with similar mods. You shouldn't have too much trouble from there.
