Smog: Cali residents in here

[vtecwho]

My set up should be listed down in my sig.

my car passes smog with flying colors with the e cam.

i have not needed to get it smogged with the vortech yet but its CARB legal so i dont think i will have any problems.

my question is: since i have put a blower on the car i was looking at getting a F cam. does anyone have any experience with this cam and the cali nazis?

my E cam has a carb number but who is going to honestly be checking what cam is hidden in my block?

i was just curious if im stuck with the E cam.

how many other cams dont have carb numbers on them that pass the sniffer in Cali.... must be a few at least.

im also putting in 42lb inj. and a LMAF. should not sued the sniffer right?

thanks

I do believe that the F cam and the combo of the injectors might get you in trouble. Unless your tune is SPOT on, the sniffer test will get you. Plus, when you have a larger cam, the techs generally arent stupid...I had one ask me flat out what cam was in it.

what cams do other people run in cali? the stock and E cam cant be all.

on the Injetors/ MAF, it will depend on the smog guy... I have failed the visual because of having different color injectors and a idle control plate. The F-cam will pass smog(I've passed with it), but because of its lope the smog guy might fail you, but then again he can't prove its not stock.

I got turned away with a TFS stage 1 at the smog station. I said the hell with it so I went with the E cam.

not to thread jack, but do you guys have to run the smog pump out there? i might be moving out there sometime in the next few years, and my car definitely does NOT have any of the original smog stuff on it anymore.

Yes. Definately have to have all the smog equipment there.
