is there such a thing as an emissions legal aftermarket intake setup

I absolutely have to pass smog cause of my dad so i was wandering if i can get a beefier intake set up(carb, manifold) while still passing. Can i just order one off of some site that will bolt up to my stock manifold or say a RB one(i have a 12a) I just want a little more power to hold me over til i move out. No headers, RB muffler and am getting a bonez free flow cat pipe. Would MSD ignition help me out a lot. Thanks for any tips God bless

I think you're SOL. But I could be wrong. How about a nice T2 swap. That would be emissions leagl.




Good luck,

zero to none of them but the whole idea actually sounds good if i can get my hands on this chunk of change i should be getting.............. what about just buying a j-spec motor and going to pic it up in cali. I dont really trust the junkyard for a block that wouldnt be rebuilt and plus there isnt a turbo, i checked, well at least right now.
