Speaking for myself, I have legitimately CA smogged my v mount equipped FD several times. Now here's the caveat: I retained the factory air box (now a CAI) and used a medium IC; works great, fits and looks stockish--never had anyone question it.
As has been mention, ditch the precat--you do not need it to pass the CA sniffer so long as you have a good main cat and airpump/emissions.

Yes precat will leave my car very soon. No longer an issue and expect to feel a dramatic drop in bay temperature.

Anyone know of a low price upgraded intercooler? Like stock placement upgrade. I got my radiator and downpipe now and it's no longer summer so fd is feeling muuuuuch cooler. Just hate this baby intercooler and looking like junk. Just want something bigger and non brand is ok for now until I do what I really want. Thanks

IMO, you should look at Intake, SMIC and Duct together. Not all SMICs will work with a stock airbox and some come with their own duct, some use the stocker. I'm happy with my PFS medium with PFS intake and duct.. I think it's a good value. But there are better ones. If you're really on a budget, I'd recommend an adamc cheap-bastard kit on the stock airbox with something like a Greddy or Blitz SMIC utilizing the OEM duct.
