any body get bothered for having turbo? can the 5-0 tell pretty easily? or does everybody just run boost for show and track? im probably willing to swap every emissions but will i get pulled over every time they see the intercooler on the street?

well I guess since you live in Cali the cops are more strict on shit so I couldn't comment on what you can and can't get pulled over for. Maybe some Cali peeps can chime in.

it really depends. i know ppl that get pulled over w/ intercoolers and they don't even get their hoods opened. it all depends. if you can hide it well behind the oem bumper. you should be fine. but if you have an aggressive body kit and you consistently showing off your BOV then you are asking for it.
you knwo what i mean? i hope that helped a little

the cops dotn give a crap about my car, im in irvine.
They have had me pop my hood, and let me go.
As long as you dont act like a punk on the streets, they have no reason to harass you really.

If he painted the intercooler and piping black he'd probably be a little less likely to get pulled over unless he lets everyone and their mother know he has a blow off valve.

cops dont pull you over too often down in so cal for turbo kits, unless your scaring small children with 5k revs and blow off valves.

You should be fine. As long as you dont act like a street racer everywhere you go. If you do get pulled over then just answer everything politely and with a sir/ma'am. That how i got away with my hood being poped and with only a no front license plate ticket. :)

yeah best way to not get pulled would be to just be responsible about ur driving and if by ever you get pulled over. Be polite, not all cops are pigs. If your still worried,coat ur intercooler black.

California has gotten out of hand. Since when is it illegal to have your car modified? All the libs in Cali spout BS about letting people do what they want, but by "they", they mean libs. If you do anything they don't like they flip out and scream bloody murder. Such BS. This whole "green" thing has gotten out of hand.....I don't even want to start, it makes me sick.

nicely said. people say its better to go green but it also cost a whole mess a green from our pockets to go green. Its been said by lots of people. The tuner industry is a billion dollar plus industry that helps the economy a great deal. IF AMERICA NEEDS A BOOST IN ECONOMY. LET US BOOST OUR CARS!

living in cali sucks but my car is registered out of state. So I don't really need to worry about thank god. lolz. but yea. I have some friends boosted and they are all doing fine. just need to find some hook up for smog. I heard that they charge like 4 5 bill just for the smog. scary.

I've never driven a turbo car with a BOV. Does it always HAVE to go off or is there a way to drive the car without really setting it off? That's what I've been wondering for awhile. Other than that I was aiming for the black IC and more subtle look.

If your car is auto, it only goes off when you let off the gas during acceleration. Or....just drive like a granny and you won't ever hear it.

I have a manual. So meaning if I drive very slow and shift early then the bov shouldn't really go off or make a loud noise? If so that's good enough for me then.

As he said just drive like a grandma so it wouldnt build up boost. Unlike me, I enjoy hearing my bov too much. lol
