hey man im tryin to find out whats the deal with the 05 intake. i heard that the only reason why injen dosnt make intake for me is because 05 has some CARBON element in the airbox for EMISSION. so im thinking...........so what if im not safe to the environment. if u wanna experiment with me, we can try ur intake on my car if its not that much of a hastle. i want comments from people about this idea cuz i want to know if it can bring damage to my car.

why would it do damge to the engine when its just air?

[RningOnFumes]

actually if you were to do the intake, you'd be taking all of that out.

voila, no carbon element to worry about.


like he said, it's only air

[greylock]

That carbon element is the vapor trap for fumes from the gas tank. Take it off and you remove emissions equipment. A big no-no in California. Depending on the smog check station, you may or may not pass emissions by removing the charcoal canister.

my car is an 05. i wont have to take smogcheck for the next 2 or 3 years. so y dont ingen make the intake for the 05 then? u guys think it is safe to do it?

[Trdkamuri510]

injen perfers all the intakes to be carb legal... with that said, it should answer your question as to why they dont make it..

just a thought.

haha i have an 05 with an injen sri and i don't have to have emission tests so i'm all good and nothing has gone wrong w/ my car yet

[Gen5.5Cam3MZ-FE]

i have an 05 v6 3.3L with an injen sri and i am living in socal

this may sound stupid, but if you don't trust our word saying it's safe, why not send an email to injen and ask
