Failed Smog, Intake hose fault Options

[nics]

Hi everyone, I just did a smog test for the my registration renewal. I passed all the emissions stuff expect but failed the comprehensive visual inspection due to a craked air intake hose which was just taped together.

Should I just buy a replacement for the hose from the yard or just install a aftermarket filter?
Should I go for Injen or Weapon R or which other brands would you guys recommend?

Thanks

You can usually find an Injen intake used for pretty decent. I have one that I bought from a member of the board, and I've been very happy with it. As for any performance difference between Injen or WeaponR, I doubt there's much difference considering you're not going to see any real HP gain to begin with anyway. But if you want it new, and WeaponR is CARB legal, I'd get that one.

If you put up a WTB or keep checking the buying and selling thread, you're bound to find someone. I got mine for dirt cheap shipped. The condition of it was great too, even though it was used, the filter was in great condition. Just keep all of your old intake/exhaust equipment to install before smogging, that's what I'm doing.
