Cobb Tuning got fined $2.9M: why just them?
There are tons of folks making catless downpipes and tunes, and just Cobb Tuning gets fined?

"Signs of potential litigation from the EPA have circled Cobb since 2022, when (...) the EPA placed a major focus on aftermarket companies and emissions regulations (and) several other tuners were hit with large penalties for their role in the distribution of those parts."

Not a political post...
The recent SCOTUS ruling on Chevron vs. Natural Resources Defense Council should be an opportunity for COBB to void this Agreement they were forced to reach with the EPA.

Not to get political, but it really feels like instead of going after a small number of people and companies modifying cars, the EPA could be doing a lot better at protecting people and the environment by doing something about micro plastics. |

I'd like to see the data that shows Cobb's emissions defeat products actually emit more pollution than a car with 100,000 miles on the original cats.
