Just wanting to verify something that i heard recently, is it true that you can get a $500 fine for a boost controller?

I think you can if it vents, put a line into your airbox and you should be ok.

What if u dont use an airbox?

what like a ram-pod or something?? they will stick u with another $200 fine, i know cause i had a pod on my 280zx, they stung me for $200 for the pod alone. Quote: Originally Posted by Fur-ri-ze What if u dont use an airbox?

NO BAGGING OF POLICE ON HERE THANKS AUS880

my trick is to hide everything.make your car look as stock as possible.out of sight out of mind.bov's are the classic case.everyone gets pinged for their shiny bov sitting proudly in the engine bay.mine is just after the cooler and painted black.the cops dont see it.and i dont get fined

My car is 100% sleeper, hub caps & all.

or you can pay 400 and something bucks and get a engineer certificate for all your mods Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

so very true.still dont mean that venting boost controllers and bovs are legal though,just cause you get it engineered.you will still be defected

SAME AS PREVIOUS POST

Its all about da $$$$

i really dont get the plumb back bov,the air will just blow out throught the airfilter anyway.they talk like it gets consumed by the engine again.it doesnt

I think u guys missed da point i dont have a bov. Cops just point at sh!t & give it a name.

nah we didnt miss the point dude.we just hijacked your thread sorry Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

***m all i reckon everything should be legal,money hungry ****s they dont care bout defects all they care about is the $$$$$ thats why we will never do anything about it cause Little Johnny is sittn on a gold mine thanx to all our modded cars.

heres a fun trick. Piss off the bov. Then undo the clips on your air box lid and go for a blast.... the lid goes *flop* *flop* *flop* *flop*. Super exagerated flutter, acutally makes you think you broke something until you work out what the hell is going on....

if the throttle is shut,where does the air go? out through the air filter

hahahaha
