Default Emissions short ram intake question...SEARCHED..

Hi, I already searched for emissions intake and emissions airbox, etc and found nothing..

just wondering, when I go to get my drive-up emissions testing done this week or next, will I fail or will they care that I have a shortie intake and no airbox? Btw it's an ebay black one with a foam filter and does not have any CARB sticker or labelling of any kind. Do I need to put on the airbox before the test? Or do they just check ECU readings and stuff?
I can't imagine ppl passing this thing with boosted Civics..how do they do it??

Why don't you call the testing center and ask? You know, instead of posting a worthless thread topic.

lol..wow

it's not worthless considering there's no other thread that can be easily found about this so it can be helpful to ppl other than me as well who don't know everything there is to know.

I just need to know the simple answer before I have to go within the next few days.

They don't do a carb test in CT... I don't think...

It should pass fine, CT follows mostly the same basis as the NY/NJ laws...

i have a aem cold air with a carb number and when i had to take my car in for an emissions check the place i took it to told told me to replace it with the factory airbox cause they're not gonna test it. maybe cali is just strict cause it does have a carb sticker stating it is legal. now every time i have to get my car tested i throw on my oem intake and replace it after the test...

Short ram does not do **** any ways so install the stock airbox if you want to be sure you will pass.

I correct you, you're wrong. There's emissions testing over here, it's just not ****-like like the state you live in.
