Hey Guys,

Just a heads up... I think the boys in blue are doing a crack down as we speak as i have noticed alot of defect stations over the past 2 weeks especially down south near Seaford...

PLUS: when you get pulled over at a defect station on the side of the road, do they pop your bonnet??? I was deffected about a year ago, and they booked me for ride hight and they didn't pop my bonnet but i was thinking as my car is nice and stock on the out side appart from mags and front bar, weather they would pop my bonnet and look for other things???

Cheers

Jamie

Ive been through 5 times and never had to put a stock exhaust system back on.

Last time I went thru I thought it was kinda loud. Turned out fine.

Turbo timer not just disconnected but fully removed.

It's illegal to have a turbo timer installed? How come i can pass a roadworthy with it connected though?

Never mind...

Car is completely stock engine wise...

However, is it illegal to have a front strut brace or a boost gauge mounted just on top of the air vent of the drivers side???

Cheers for your help :worship:

Strut brace fine. Boost gauge no

Depends where the boost gauge is, if its in a vent or down below the dash it is fine, on the dash or a pillar you can't have it though.

Turbo timer is illegal because if you have a crash and the car get a fuel leak and it keeps running, sup massive fire. They shouldn't have given you roadworthy with it connected.
