I need to find a stock air intake to pass CA Smog testing. I tossed mine when I installed a CAI (dumb), and have found the air filter box and everything forward off a 92-94. I think it's the same as my 91SE, but I remember the rest of the intake being different. Everyone shows pics of their CAIs, but I can't find a pic of the stock 91SE intake. Can anyone provide? Thanks for the help.

 

Heres my engine bay.. you can kinda see the intake... I hope this helps..

 

Is this a new law in CA?

I had no issues passing smog with my HKS intake and hiflo cat so i'm definitely interested.

 

That black max in your sig is sick. I love the look

 

I have that same wooden stick!! hah... damn hydraulic lifters broke within the 2nd year of ownership.

 

Thanks for the pic, NineOhSE, that was just what I was looking for.

Not a new law. I'm told by the racing guys here that it will be an automatic visual failure to have a modded intake. The hiflo cat you can prolly get away with since they don't crawl under the car, but I think you got lucky with the HKS intake. Our guys here who rebuild our engines say that those smog guys have seen everything and wouldn't pass it, maybe you got a guy who's new at the game.

 

Really, I would have gotten a second opinion, and research smog laws

 

I need the long black intake hose and the smaller one connecting to the engine.

Anyone got it?

 

Check the classifieds section for the parts you need..

 

It's the law, ANYTHING that is not STOCK on your engine Is ILLIGAL if it effects smog output. UNLESS..... You have a C.A.R.B. # stamped on the part or a sticker. Go to www.dmv.ca.gov and research it.
Us californians have it BAD when it comes to modding our cars.

I found the site. It took a while. Man, they should give us a break since we don't drive Hummers or Italian sport cars. My emissions are is far from the maximum allowed emissions.

Thanks for the education

 

that's interesting... i guess it just depends where you go. my smog guy just looks past the mods and checks emissions.

 

My smog guy doesn't exist..

 

i have one for sale......my email is vansskaterfreek@comcast.net

 

Mine looks the other way too, Only on my Ford Focus tho, I have a race header and intake, cams, cam gears, chip... ect, as long as the check engine light doens't come on, I PASS, The chip takes care of the EGR not being hooked up
