Smog Calif: K&N filter and Chip remapping

Will either affect smog testing in Calif?

Not sure, but it sure is sad that you have to ask that! Whats this I heard about Cali tripling the vehicle tax over the weekend? Nice legislature you guys got there. Best of luck.

You should contact Steve W. on this board. He sells remapped chips in California, and I'm sure he'll be up on smog issues.

Most chip manufacturers label them for off road use, only to cover themselves. The only way to check is to put the motor on the test pipe and take a read.....air cleaners most likely do not cause compliance issues.

Chips wil not fail the "visual" test like headers or lack of a smog pump.....it's all in the pipe....8^)

my sc just passed with a k&n, the tech did not even pop the top of the cleaner housing.

while smog is an issue here has the california budget nightmare back burnered the sb708 stuff?
