You can easily register your car in South Dakota via a service like America's Mailbox, and it's apparently common. CHP specifically prohibits this and targets it with a program called Cheaters, so it's not fully legal and clear. Also, CHP tends to apply vehicle laws even to those registered out of state, so this may not exempt the vehicle from the exhaust law. But it would be an interesting route to explore, especially for a weekend/pleasure car (since part of the Cheaters law is effectively enforced by how often the vehicle is driven and spotted by CHP).

Anyone on here done something like this before?
