Intercooler Piping....PLEASE HELP!

kamaji9 · 08-04-2008, 10:23 PM

Are there any ca CARB/smog legal aftermarket intercooler pipes. I'm having trouble passing smog. If not, is anyone willing to sell me their stock rubber pipes? Please help! Thanks.

Paint the pipes Flat primer black. then go to the dirty'est, most thuged out inspection place you can find...

You can always clean the paint off with acetone.

You Will Pass!

You mean to say your car is failing the sniffer test? If so, then intercooler piping isn't going to help you pass that.

Aren't Intercoolers and pipes, CARB EXEMPT, on stock turbo cars?

so does anybody know if any aftermarket brands make carb legal pipes?

no one will smog my car unless my pipes have a carb sticker, so does anyone make ca carb legal kits?

the california smog rules are very strict...i went to a couple little family owned places, but they are scared of getting shut down or fined for smogging my car. Again, if anyone is willing to sell me some stock rubber hoses, I would appreciate it
