my first one i had non carb approved header on my integra. i couldnt put it back to stock because i had internals done and what not so i just paid the fine and then that was done with.

my second one i had a 1jz swap in my lexus. (TT)

basically...u can have an intake and get a state ref. depends on the cop that pulls you over. especially now too since we recently had those 2 incidents involving street racing and people dying.

its a huge risk like people have posted previously.

can you just pay the fine and leave it alone ? I had so much done to my car, ther is no way I can put OEM parts back on. It would be cheaper just to pay the fine.

I will No problem, just go to a local meet and if you see me hit me up. Car is getting a surgery right now at GTM. Not putting the N/A Z down but no where near as quick as turbo'd Z.

Once I had a chippie pull me over, he asked "Do yo have any force induction?" I said "I wish I did, but no I dont" He walked towards the front of my car and shined his flashlight looking for an intercooler. Wierd. Didnt give me a ticket, just told me to put my front plate on.

lucky you, I have TT with no front plate.

I have the Top Secret front bumber and don't really know where to mount the front plate.
