Air intake mods with CA emissions?
I would like to incorporate some of the excellent air intake modifications that I've seen on this site for my new 2000 F150 5.4V8. Unfortunately, I am stuck with the CA emissions system and am unsure if I can apply the modifications. Any suggestions? Are there any other modification specific to eliminating some of the restrictions of the CA emissions system? I also plan to install a superchip once I have 1-2K miles on the truck.

I don't have the complete California emissions package on my truck but Texas does require the intake (and others) to be carb approved. With this in mind, I purchased the K&N generation two that is carb approved (has a -1 after the stock number). You may want to call a local speed shop in California or a mail order house like RV Performance Connection and ask them tons of questions. Then when satisfied, order from F150.com. Or… you could always move to a free state (less regulated).https://www.f150online.com/f150board/icons/icon12.gif
