i know rac are now doing dpi inspections, and alot of people have said its better than the pits. however, online, and on the phone they say they do not do modified cars..even with just an exhaust..

my question is, has anyone WITH mods done a dpi inspection with rac?

ok here's the facts

RAC has ALWAYS done pit inspections, it's just that nobody cared cos DPI did the inspection for a lot cheaper than RAC

RAC does the inspecition a lot harsher than the DPI but now BPI has put their prices up to come inline with RAC so that people are now given a choice to make as to whom they want to inspect their car

i took my car to welshpool thinking i owuld get it easy, i didn't

i got a very extensive work order

i did NONE of the work

took the car to the midland branch, they looked over my car agreed it was fine and removed the sticker then n there

my advice, take it to midland the guys there are just very nice to deal with

Very nice to deal with at Midland, they went over my car with a fine toothed comb (and he was training a new inspector on my car) and all I got was torn steering rack boot, unhung exhaust hanger, bolt pod filter/intake piping down better and make bonnet latch operate easier (gtst latch with gtr grill/bonnet). I was pleasantly surprised!

    • The only way to make that better is to weld on some bozozoku tips up past window height and roll with the cool kids.
    • I'd want an even MORE side on view. More or less you want to make sure the outlet is actually square with the outermost part of the bumper. Or you end up getting soot all over your bumper from your hektik exhaust. In any case, it looks pretty close. I think the way to fix this is probably more of an overhaul at an exhaust specialty shop if you want tips that are rounded off or sit nicely with the bumper but have proper clearance and don't move - Probably more of a redesign than a quick fix. I've pencilled in my own exhaust with its own various problems, pinholes, PITA fitment, and other issues and can see myself going to a shop and saying "JUST DO THIS BUT BETTER?"  Which is gonna work better than any more small fixes. I'm gonna chime in here officially with "from an outsider perspective this exhaust looks fine so this is self OCD probably" (which I also suffer from)
    • Reminds me I really need to install that HKS oil cooler I bought years ago.
