because they don't have an EO#, so they aren't 50 state carb legal. I know because I got a fix it ticket one time for having an ebay intake, and the ticket was like 300 dollas. But the only reason I got pulled over was because my exhaust was to loud,and the lady made me pop my hood.

Interesting...I've never heard of that..

But a quick google search shows that used to be the case. Now all the major manufacturers (AEM, Injen, K&N) all say '50 State Legal'. Probably because they have those executive order numbers now, or emissions standards have changed up a bit.

Nope. It's still illegal if it's against the law. But like I posted up there, all the major manufacturers are 50 state legal..if you custom make your own, probably not so much. The question then becomes what exactly is in the executive order allowing the intake..and if it pretains to the filter type, or the amount of air going into the throttle body..etc..

Usually... Unless you anger the police pulling you over, they won't bother you at all...

Unless you live in California.
