it was at chaffey college. they were young guys, bout 4 of them. they know all the stuff like engine swaps, headers, intakes, etc. so don't think you're gonna get away with your mods that look stock. my hks carbon-ti exhaust barely passed at 91.8 dB. they told me another white evo went there a while back and failed his exhaust test. so yea i feel lucky. they also told me that installing a boost controller and afc is ILLEGAL. i was kinda disappointed to hear that cuz those were gonna be my next mods. so for those of you who have them, just be extra careful.

Mr. "I have nothing else better to do" CHP officer gave me an exhaust and smog citation because of my intake.

i put everything back to stock except for my exhaust cuz i knew that was gonna pass. i passed the inspeciton and papers were given to me for proof of compliance. i had to make copies to show to the cops in case i get pulled over again.

How did he know about your intake? Did you open your hood for the chippy?

ya the CHP is allowed to pop the hood ask Mark(IS2000) they poped his hood and tore off the top of his intake box just to find the intake.

no they can , but if you are willing to play the game and wait till they do get a warrent .
it can be worse they can just sight you and sent you to the state ref
