Angry Stickered

Was pulled up in a booze bus, and givin the hated yellow sticker. for no direct reason either. on the paper all they said was that all mods needed to be checked and permits to be issued if compliant.
so the question is, does anyone have any tips to give about going over the pits? the car has adjustable suspension so height wont be a problem. do you need permits for things like front mounts, blow off valves, screamer pipes n such?

blow off valve will need to be plumbed back and you won't get a permit for a screamer pipe

Lol... permitted screamer pipe? good luck...

you will have to get that plumbed back into the exhaust most likely...

BOV - just tighten it right up so it doesnt open unless really pushed hard(can block of the pipe if it opens all the time) and you'll probably get away with it.

Front Mount should be ok, they may request you pay for a permit for it tho.

other than that, make sure you get the exhaust as quiet as possible..

depends where it is... remember they go under the car in the pit, so if its visible, they'll notice it!

Hmmmmmmmm, that sucks, was pulled over the other day, luckily they didnt go over the car.
They are allowed to test drive the car on inspection right?
If so, how hard are they allow to drive it?
I dont hit boost til nearly 5k, so they wouldnt be able to hear the screamer?
Hmmmm I dread the day I get stickered.
Unlucky mate.

Try your best to clear it first time dude. If they send you away they'll be much more picky next time round.

On a side note I hate how canary's are being handed out for fuk all. Just another way of revenue raising. Funny how stickers get handed out on a whim just after the price for inspection goes up isn't it?

hey guys just a little bit of canary info
check wether they put the sticker on at an angle or straight
with it crooked that means throw the book
if its on straight business as usual
had both and can attest to this
