Hey everyone meet my GrandDaughter Addisyn! Born a preemy @26 weeks last Thursday, she is doing awesome! Addie is off her ventilator and breathing on her own with oxygen tubes. She has a long road but all things considered she is doing well! Her Mother held her for the first time today! You should have heard the excitement in her and my Son's voice on the phone! Moving forward taking any and all wins! I'll stop now but today was an awesome day! Thank you for prayers. Doug

I know there's a lot of apprehension about installing CAI on Tacos, but my youthful Fast & Furious, import tuner itches are starting to come back. In Ohio, I never had to worry about getting my vehicle inspected and all that nonsense that we have to do in PA. So, we pretty much just bolted whatever we wanted on to our cars. I decked out a 2000 Celica, for example. CAI, exhaust, coilovers, stereo, undercarriage lights, painted engine plastics, painted interior trim, etc, etc, etc... (I can provide pictures, if you want to see lol).

Does PA adhere to CARB standards? I did some googling and I believe that we do. I was looking at getting a S&B CAI for my Taco, once they test them and validate them on the 2021 models. From what I've read on S&B's website, their CAI is NOT CARB certified. So, if I install that on my Taco, then have my truck inspected, will/can they "fail" my truck for not meeting CARB standards?

Without getting into a debate on CAIs themselves, can anyone tell me if my assumptions are correct?

Thanks!

there are the PA inspection requirements.

I don't see anything about CARB or CAI.

Awesome! Thanks!

I agree, I don't see anything on there either.

When I checked around, I searched for "Pennsylvania CARB standards" or something like that.

That definitely answers my question. Much appreicated.

They're legal but add nothing but cost and dust to your engine.

The first several times I saw one of those decals, with the font style they use, I swore it said "Slut Life" LOL. I'd always cruise by real slow to see what any females inside looked like.....

I think that every single time. For some reason I also mistakenly read the anti-piracy message at the beginning of movies as Privacy is a crime, so I’m probably not the best judge.

not sure why a truck would fail inspection for a standard from another state. With that said, nothing surprises me anymore.

I've never even seen them pop a hood for inspection.
CARB is a California thing.
There used to be 50 state legal and 49 state legal vehicles. Can you guess which state the 49 state legal vehicles aren't legal in?

Grossomotto · Feb 4, 2021

Thx I'm pretty sure I got a set, if not I'll let you know, much appreciated.

Hey, everyone. Just curious who is in the Allentown and surrounding areas. I am relocating down this way from the Finger Lakes region for work (currently house hunting).

Welcome to the area. I'm in the Northwestern part of Lehigh county. Any of the smaller towns on the outskirts are nice and so is Bethlehem. Check out city-data.com. If you have any specific questions about the area pm me.

Well, like I said, I’m new to the whole “inspection” thing. I just moved to PA in late 2019. It wasn’t something I ever worried about before in Ohio, so I never paid attention to what was CARB certified and what wasn’t. I wanted to make sure I knew and understood the rules before I tinkered with anything to could potentially raise any red flags during the inspection process.
