Yep...Intakes ,exhausts, NOS. Basically, anything that is involved with the emmisions of the car they ticket for. Hell, even tires that stick out a little they get you for......

I'm looking into getting a LMS intake real soon too, and I was wondering if anybody know if the LMS intake will fit on an IS250 as well with no problems? Thanks.

Plastis intakes are not a cheap change. Take a look at the last several generations of BMW and Mercedes manifolds. Working with plasics allows them to manufacture shapes and compounds bends that cannot be done with metal. Plastis is also much smoother on the inside so the air flow is not as turbulent. Plastic is also not porous. Many more positives to using plastics.

I would love to post a vid, but I dont know where to host it.
gimme the website of free-hosting video, than I would have it by you real soon.. lol
cuz, I already took some clips.. hehe
Also, The price was $255 + 15 shipping directly from LMS.
I am positive that this is CARB legal, because it uses K&N filter, and they have a whole sheet of paper that said, it is CARB legal from the pakage.
