as long as it uses the stock maf housing its good to go for smog
if it doesnt it has to have a carb number

you can get a cai that has a carb number and cut it to be a short ram

don't waste your time getting a short ram intake, it won't make any power, and some say it decreases hp, if you just want more of the turbo sound and bov, get a K&N drop in and remove the snorkus (sound resonator box in front right fender)

Will removing the snorkus or resonator box affect performance? Do you replace it with anything?
