[evilcalvin]

change it out and do a cold air intake. more power, better gas mileage, more torque better sound. It also looks cool. check out my car of the month. I bought a cold air intake (CAI) off ebay for $35 bucks shipped. it lista as a 94 accord piece. i think alot of guys will tell you the same

 

[helloexactly]

Um he needs a stock piece for Commiefornia smog inspection.

 

[evilcalvin]

HOPEFULLY THIS CLEARS MY THREAD UP.. someone please helpp!! (=

just cut a piece of metal tubing and paint it black. whats the difference? lol

 

[ricerrx7]

Try another dealer.

 

[KrO!Dy]

this is what i need...

 

[jimbo3n21]

all it is, is plastic tubing. just make your own piece

 

[Pete03GLS]

yeah. that plastic piece wont affect your emissions. ud pass even with a sri/cai.

but u can always go to a junkyard n get one cheap.

 

[KrO!Dy]

id still pass with sri ON pete????????????

 

[ricerrx7]

Pete doesn't know anything about cars. You'd fail the visual. You circled 3 pieces there. Maybe they think you need a new MAF too and that's why they want $150?

Call the junkyard and look on e-bay to.

^ unless its carb legal it wont pass. I think aem is the only aftermarket that is carb legal.

 

[Pete03GLS]

please explain to me, ricer, how i dont know anything? ****ing enlighten me. asshole.

 

[ricerrx7]

please explain to me, ricer, how i dont know anything? ****ing enlighten me. asshole.

Because you are telling her that she's going to pass. You are going to cost her money when she goes, they charge her for the test, pop the hood, and fail her on the spot. She needs to have it stock in order to pass the visual.

 

[Pete03GLS]

must be a california thing then. because i passed emissions without a single issue with my short ram intake, back when i went n had mine done.

 

[ricerrx7]

You've really never heard people *****ing about how strict cali emissions testing is?

 

[WytchDctr]

Hey, some clown failed my car in Texas (no emissions testing in my old area) because of a short ram during the safety inspection.. LOL. I wasn't there to have a talk with him, I was deployed at the time.
