Do you think I will pass smog?

Hey you guys, I was wondering if you think I would pass smog with my mods?

Power FC dyno tuned by Steve Kan
Downpipe
Racing Beat catback
Stock Cat
M2 CF intake
M2 Med intercooler

or do I need to look for a hookup

Thanks for any opinions or advice

You need a hook up. Even if it passes the sniffer, you'll most likely fail the visual with that intake/ic set-up.

Where ya located?

Intercoolers are debatable, but that intake is not.

With the Power FC the check engine light does not come on at startup so thats an automatic fail.

Epic fail.

Come by my shop we'll put it on the sniffer to see how badly you fail.

Kensin, I don't believe you broke any rules since you weren't advertising the place or offering a hookup to anyone, but just to warn you, every year there are more and more crime squads developed that look into matters posted on the internet, and I would not be surprised if your admittance on a forum of breaking such a law would hold up in court against you. We should all become increasingly aware that such matters posted on this website could eventually become prosecutions or at the very least, investigations into finding smog hookups.

have you done a tune up lately ?
Spark Plugs, tps set, timing set ? power FC hide it! ( although it should change your a/f ratio) intake change it to stock. I agree the intercooler is questionable. As long as you have a cat on there and any other smog equipment. You should pass.
