Now the fun begins....!

My Stillen CAI didn't come with a CARB sticker but after I asked for one and
showed proof of purchase they sent me one. You might contact Injen and
try to get one. Headers, I believe there's only one company that was
given a CARB number. (remove them) The HKS exhaust shouldn't be a problem
once the headers are taken off. Good Luck "Big Brother is watching!"

I played stupid and ask the lady who answered the phone that i wouldnt have time to take it in. And i just wanted to pay the fine. The fine as $890 so it would clear my record but she said if i get pulled over again and get the same exact ticket i would have to see the REF w/o option of paying the fine.

Hope that helps. that kinda blows that they popped you for that.
Is there always a fine you can pay? Because for me they didn't exactly tell me about a fine I can pay and its my first ticket -_-



I actually was 7 minutes late to my referee appointment today and they made me reschedule -.-

But yeah I called Injen and they said all their intakes are CARB approved except for the RD CAI for the Coupe.. which happens to be the one I have, but they sent them in to get them approved are they are expected to approve...by the end of this month. with that I left both my Intake and Exhaust on o.O

I'm actually going again with the Intake still on on Thurs ;;

OK, so I go in today, with all my paperwork. They run the tests and everything, I pass sniffer. It doesn't seem like he cared about the exhaust at all. The only problem I had was the DC headers, when they looked it up on their system, it still said pending. So he said I need to get the stickers for that and I'll be good. So looks like I need to make some phone calls and get my hands on some stickers... Otherwise it looks like I should be clear w/ no problems once I have the stickers.

^^^Any chance you can get me one while you're at it? I don't think mine has the stickers either and we both have the same headers. If you can, great, if not no worries. Or let me know how you got yours. Peace.

OK, after making numerous phone calls, heres the info that I got as to how to get a DC Sports CARB sticker. DC Sports is no longer owned by AEM, they are now owned by DME Power. Their phone number is 626-968-5147. They told me to get a CARB sticker, I need to send an e-mail to: info@dme-power.com including pictures of the headers installed on my car, as well as a copy of the receipt.

Hope that helps.

OK, I just got back from Injen. Fortunately for me, I have the very old Injen CAI, the RD1990, which has already been CARB approved. So I was able to just go down there and they gave me a sticker for it. However for those of you running the newer model, SP1993, it will be a few more months before CARB will have stickers for it. They already sent the intakes out for testing, just need to be approved. Just thought I'd share this for anyone else in the same boat with an Injen intake.

Now just playing the waiting game, waiting for DC to get back to me...
