About 30mph, as I said :P
& I have a K&N Sticker on mine, bwahahaha

And they don't have a right to look under your hood, unless you give them reasonable probable cause (You have a riced out car, and crazy exhaust)
Or you let them.
If they ask to look under your hood, say no

yeah, a little bit. It's a bit quieter inside the cabin, but then again, I usually drive with my windows down
It's fun going thru tunnels

because they legally stopped you, they do in fact have the right to look under ur hood.... and (especially) CHP will stop you for speeding a few mph over the limit if they wanted. a fellow member on my local forum just got ticketed 59 in a 55 by chp.

and is ur k&N sticker a carb sticker?

im just saying. u know how CHP is now that Brown signed a bill halting their hiring for the next year.

^my point is based on when/if they stop you for whatever reason. (just to make it clear)

If they stop you, they don't have the right to pop your hood.
They MUST have probable cause to search your vehicle, (based on their experience, based on prior knowledge...etc)

Can they search your car anyways? Yeah
If you tell them that you do not consent to searches, anything they find is fruit of the poisonous tree, and cannot be admissible in court.

I'm not saying, if you were rolling a joint in your car, and your whole car smells like weed, that saying that you don't consent to searches will protect you, because based on the officer's experience, if he can tell that you've been smoking it up, he HAS the probable cause to search your car, and with the probable cause, it IS admissible in court.

And yeah, my K&N is a carb sticker :P

Besides, they don't give me a lot of ****, last time I was pulled over next to an import show, they asked if I had any mods under the hood, i just said
"Dude, this is an automatic"

Awesome post Kenny(if I can call you that). I remember asking you to do this as a favor and your man of your word!

Its still a toss up for me getting one though. I've been debating on whether to just buy a d17a2 somewhere and learn how to rebuild it. If I do that route I won't have expendible cash to get a SRI. But again, thanks for going out your way to post it!

Dunno, got it off a forum member who originally got it off ebay
Fits great, runs great, sounds awesome
Def worth a $25 mod.

Does NOS sticker counts for a reason to stop a car?

Re: Curious what intake sounds like on 7th gen?
wooops.
I was just remembering that you have asked for intakes for the 8th gen... so 7th gen tip: that CAI will not fit auto. SRI will (any) - you might know - that's just to save me some face )

For the record, my AEM V2 made my car sound completely different than when I had a Weapon*R Dragon intake on.

Yeah, I was looking into it for fun for my 8th gen...

but since changing the air filter on the 7th gen, broke the stupid airbox (just cracked out two bolts that just spun) so now I should probably replace it...

So there is clearance issues with the CAI for autos I'm guessing?

I do believe so, there was another recent thread on it. Have been so many years since i had the auto that i honestly do not remember. Did not do any work on it myslef either... Was too pissed that my left leg lost so much strenght that i learned how to left-foot brake on it.

This, intakes are like exhausts, they all produce a different sound.

yeh, my co-worker farts in a higher pitch noises and it pauses for a faction of a second before going to a longer tone I guess he is shy and constricts for a fraction ofa sec before letting it go.
(sorry, was using all me remembrance a few minutes ago and i guess this is the price to pay - completely numbness for a few minutes...)
