video that the GReddy intake is just a relabel of the AFE, so i assume the AFE is illegal 
Just so i can get it crystal clear, the only way cops could bust someone with a CARB illegal intake would be if they inspected whats under the hood or looked for a CARB sticker? assuming the car passes smog tests of course.
Last thing, can you please explain what you mean by a tune? Ive never really understood what it is exactly. Sorry for my noobiness  |
I am not sure how it works for cops when and where they can make you pop your hood. Might need someone to chime in, bur yes that Intake is illegal in the great state of CA. A Tune is an adjustment to the cars ECU. The manufacture always leave hidden power behind due to emissions or wanting to hit a certain MPG rating. In the hands of a right tuner, you can get a bit more power and torque, smooth out the car, and some even gain better MPG. It also helps as you add more bolt ons to extract the most power from these mods as they affect AFR, and other things on the car. BTW no worries about the questions. We all have to start somewhere.(I was in your spot over a year ago)
