RSX-S turbo?
hey i want to know that if i go turbo on the RSX-S, and like i got everything hooked up on it and stuff. And while i'm driving and like the turbo kicks in and like a police heard the turbo, would i get in trouble for having turbo on my RSX-S and if i do what would they do to my car?

what your trying to say is that if a turbo kit is illegal for a rsx? i dont think so depends on your state laws. most cops wont pull you over for having a turbo in you car unless your doing 90 in a 30. plus some cops dont even know what a turbo or a intercooler is. well atleast some of the ones down here dont.

if a cop pulls you over for a turbo, then you ask him how many SUBARUS AND EVO'S has he pulled ova in the past 5 years... I dont think you having a turbo will get you in any trouble, where do you live?? do you have any state regulations for vehicle add-ons??

Aftermarket modification will usually send you straight to the BAR ref if a cop sees them (at least in California).

Other turbo kits are much cheaper and much better; Greddy banks off of being "Street Legal"

They don't bank off of it because it cost them a ton of money to get it CARB exempt, so they pass the cost of doing that onto the consumer.
