20% of 100 is the same as 20% of 1,000,000 in "relative" terms. THE SAME. That's how smog is measured in percentage!!!

Yes, I am putting out more exhaust, but it doesn't have a higher percentage of pollutants, it's the same percentage!

A CAI is causing more emissions the same way driving more causes more emissions. Someone driving 100 miles will cause double the pollution of someone driving 50 miles. Simple enough for you? According to your logic the first guy should not pass the smog

To say that 20 percent of 100 is the same as 20 percent of a million is silly, 20 pph is different than 20 ppm. You will not pass if you are putting out 20 pph but you may pass with 20 ppm. I don't live in California and cannot tell you how they do smog test. What is the baseline and what percentage do you need to pass? To say that burning more fuel does not equate to more emissions or noxious gas is silly.

HA HA enough to know that burning more fuel makes more emissions.
