modifying a car isn't a right- it's actually a priviledge.
Actually, I believe it's only a federal offense to disable or remove a factory-installed emissions control device. Also, there are CARB certified parts that the EPA accepts. I still don't think it's illegal to put E85 in your car as long as federal excise taxes for motor fuels are paid.

I'm going to look into this a little more.
