a few things,
that cop was an absolute moron!
A) It is not illegal to change 'ANYTHING' in the engine bay... seriously, this just pisses me off when the people who are policing these laws dont even know what the hell they are talking about...
B) your wastegate is on your turbo, and i doubt he was able to see it without jacking the car up or removing the turbo heat shield. The blue tube sounds like the pressure tube running from your plennum to your BOV. The front mount intercooler is legal so long as it doesnt penetrate any structural point of the car (chassis) As for the POD filter im not 100% sure but i am pretty sure so long as its secured and covered it legal.
C) should have either gotten someone to drive the otherway in your car or driver the otherway in it. ("come over and have a chat" will not hold up in court...believe me...)
D) I have a standard 33 airbox, cooler and exhaust if you need to borrow for regency...
E) lol @ them not defecting you for the Boost Controller...they always ask about them but cant tell them when they are looking right at em!
F) In regards to paying to have defects removed if your vehicle is infact roadworthy....thats absoloute crap, im sure we push this hard enough we would win...im not trying to be a cheap stingy bastard...but honestly thats just money wasted which they are not intitled to.
