are there any after market manifold out there that can hide the turbo away from the view of people...? meaning for visual inspections? (for example...like cops asking for you to pop the hood) are there any pics out there with their turbos and pipes hidden very well?

some states have really strict emission laws (cali being the worst)
and you will fail smog tests w/ a turbo or headers or high flow cat and other things like that.

that sucks man, but at least one state is keeping it green lol, we have rednecks driving around without tail pipes here... tongue.gif

I resemble that remark. The muffler fell off my truck 10 years ago when I lived in Lexington. I guess I took the turn too fast. Been without every since.
