The concept of mobile tent trailers has been around a long time. As matter of fact, the covered wagon that transported untold numbers of pioneers into the American west were a type of mobile tent trailer. Some 50 years later, when automobiles started to roam around the country, the covered wagon concept evolved into a type of car trailer that a camping tent could be erected on. These “tent trailers” were a specialty product, but still significant numbers were sold to those that preferred camping on a comfortable platform rather than on the hard ground.
Originally “turbos” were devices that car manufacturers and hotrodders added to their cars solely to boost performance. Today turbos are installed on many cars right from the factory for another reason; turbochargers allow car manufacturers to put smaller engines in their cars and trucks and this means they can make cars that deliver higher gas mileage.
If you live in California then you probably know that it is the toughest state in the country when it comes to vehicle emissions. California has strict standards and they check your car’s emissions every two years. Often called a “smog check,” this test needs to be done on time or can’t register your car during your next registration period.
In most other states in the country, a car’s emissions check is performed every year. Instead of being done “pro-actively,” it is usually done during an annual inspection. If your car fails the emissions test, then it won’t receive a new inspection sticker.

But before we go into the details concerning this amazing advance in automotive engineering, let’s travel back to the very beginning.
If you are a car performance enthusiast (aka “gear-head”) then you know that there’s quite a few ways to squeeze more power out of your car. One of the easier methods and one that gets a lot of press is to install a “Cold Air Intake.” You may have seen these devices either on the web or maybe mounted in someone’s car. They generally take the form of a long plastic tubes with a cone-shaped air filter on one end. The idea is that you place the air filter end somewhere under the hood where cooler air exists. After all, cooler air makes a car go faster, right?
