Hi everyone, I just did a smog test for the my registration renewal. I passed all the emissions stuff expect but failed the comprehensive visual inspection due to a craked air intake hose which was just taped together.
Should I just buy a replacement for the hose from the yard or just install a aftermarket filter? Should I go for Injen or Weapon R or which other brands would you guys recommend? Thanks -------------------- God made man....

unless the aftermarket intake is carb legal, your gonna fail smog again anyways. im not sure if the weapon R is but i know the injen one has the carb sticker iirc.
i failed the visual smog a few months ago becuase i had an HKS SRI. lame way to waste 30 bucks. |

E0# D 489-1 is CARB legal. Its also cheaper than Injen's but I wonder how they differ in performance. -------------------- God made man....
