im interested in a skunk2 IM but would it pass smog when it comes to visualsor the main test? or would i have to swap back the stock one?..any input thanks.oh and i searched..im in ca

 

Would a smog inspector even notice it was aftermarket? Looks stock enough to me. Looks just like an ITR intake manifold(well esentially it is). It shouldn't affect emmisions very much if at all.

 

The likelyhood of you passing the smog inspection is heavily dependent upon how well the inspector knows his parts.

 

appearance wise, it looks far from a GS-R intake mani so they would fail you if you didn't have a CARB sticker for it.
