Thry really need to make CARB legal CA intakes

I been struggling to find a CARB legal intake for my 2010 ss camaro.i understand that it's easy to remove for the smog Check the problem here in cali that if u get pulled over and check your engine you will be screwed if you have a non CARB legal cold air intake like ROTO FAB or CIA witch are the most popular.any suggestions?

Unless you give the cop a huge reason to hate you when they pull you over, I doubt it would ever be an issue. I put one on mine knowing it isn't CARB legal but never had it throw a check engine light and the smog place I go to wouldn't care.

An Eldelbrock blower is certified CARB.

No intakes are legal. They need to be totally I closed like cai, and have a carbon trap filter in the top part

An Edelbrock super charger is 50 state legal.
That will stuff some air into your intake.
