Default BLOX intake Manifold review

Just got my blox intake manifold installed by a friends friend and wow..vtec sounds sweet now. vtec has a much more smooth transition and also pulls harder. In order to pass smog though, your gonna need to find a way to re-route the gas purge back into the intake mani..my friend fabricated something..works nicely. Just watch out for the injector O-rings..one of them broke and I leaked 1/4 tank of fuel. Otherwise, i give this a nice

You won't be able to pass smog with that Intake manifold. It's not CARB approved.

Its CARB pending. It looks identical to the ITR intake manifold. If it doesnt pass, i'll probably get the gas purge valve tapped on the intake mani in its factory position, otherwise, its running very nicely. VTEC sounds a bit deeper and not so twangy..
