what is up guys i have a 1996 mustang gt 4.6. its been handed down to me by my father and it didnt pass smog because it has a K&N intake and it doesnt have this "sticker" on the intake. i dont know what this sticker has to do with anything but i was wondering if anyone has a stock one i can buy or have so i can pass the smog?

Probably one of the idiotic CARB certifications that commiefornia requires. You might try K&N, or you might have to get a stock intake or another CAI that has the sticker.

I'd just get an OEM / stock intake for it. The K&N isn't doing much for you anyway. Not worth the hassle in CA.

Seems like California is pretty hardcore when it comes to emissions testing, as previously stated I would just find a stock intake as an aftermarket doesn't really do anything for ya.
