I'm just asking because it sounds so bizarre to be pulled over for essentially nothing. Seems like they would have real laws to enforce.

hassled him and asked a bunch of questions... but it was a STOCK sti dumped with red hose dressup in the engine bay... the cop let him off but still the whole thing sucked

damn I would buy it if there was a cover for the downpipe! I already made a ghetto heat shield (rattles like crazy) to hide my downpipe in the engine bay.

If I was a cop and I saw a rich white kid who looked like you driving around trying to act black i'd probably try to find a reason to pull you over as well.
Sucks that you can't put the turbo kit in next weekend now though

yeah...same here..thats why I have my front plates on. Tinted front windows can also be a good reason for the cops to pull you over..
