D-d-d-d-d-deeefected!!!

[Horus]

Well my bad luck continues

I got defected today

Pod or intercooler to be removed, and battery to be secured

The cop was really decent about it, I dont need a roadworthy, I didnt get a fine, and I can drive the car till the 30th and its a minor, not a major

Oh well these things happen

Im seriously thinking about going back to the stock airbox with a panel filter

[R31Nismoid]

you wont get any gain from a pod as i can bet you wont have a proper CAI setup correct?

[krzysiu]

Fark man, this week has been biting u in the arse

If you didnt get a fine, just fix it up and it will be all good . So much for your stealth look lol. Aint helping

[Horus]

nah thats wat I got

proper custom CAI

[Laurence]

Yes, only one change allowed as per Mr EPA.

Stock airbox with intercooler is the go IMO...

[Horus]

...and wat makes u think I wouldnt have a CAI?? Are you suggesting I do things half assed ash??

[ferni]

I think its because most people who have a POD just have it sitting there without a proper CAI - i assumed the same until i read the post where you said otherwise.

Stock airbox is good less defects, power increase from a POD would be so small if at all, so not worth it IMO.

[Horus]

yer fair call

the whole reason I got the CAI is so I could avoid defects!!!

too late now

Just spoke to benny

the defect is being cleared on wednesday, and Im getting the stock airbox put on, with a K&N panel filter

your luck is starting to get almost as good as mine back last year when i got defected, EPA'ed and then crashed into in about 2 weeks... lets hope this is not the start of the VIC curse for your car! Better get those voodoo mofos to sacrifice some chickens on your car or something before its too late!

guess its the last week of the month, have to expect the revenue police to be out in force. Pretty much a "why bother" defect though, other than the funds.. the sphincter of the universe munchers!

[Horus]

oh and another thing, the copper checked my boot as well

guess he was looking for nitrous or maybe a fuel system

true, but he didnt fine me and I dont need a roadworthy...Ill live

but yes I agree

babies will be sacrificed tonite

[R31Nismoid]

well how can they defect you for the pod then?

if its proper CAI it should be boxed up, then they cant pin you for it as its in an enclosure

He lifted the top section up, bending the CAI in the process

[R31Nismoid]

lifted it up?

so its not screwed in place obviously... screw it down. Problems gone

[Horus]

yer I might do that, damn benny, shoulda done it in the first place :cuss:

[Ait]

Horus, I suggest you get yourself an APS CAI. It's just a small pipe extension that juts out from the stock airbox. You need someone to cut a hole for you on the S15 airbox though. The end of the extension goes into the hole where the radiator overflow bottle is located (right hand side looking towards passenger's side). There's a high pressure airflow point there with air coming in from the headlights area. It does wonders, I had one put on my S14, could feel the instant throttle response straightaway. Don't worry, it's the same item for the S14 and S15, even the airboxes are the exact same.

ON hard throttle you'll hear the 'swhooosh' sound but it's still softer then the POD, and it'll keep you out of trouble because it's still using the stock airbox and it isn't exposed.

DAYM... first Ronin now you... least the piggies went easy on you both! :headspin:

The EPA only allow ONE intake modification. It doesn't matter how legit your CAI is if you have an FMIC.

[inark]

seems to be the most missed point of this whole thread... dont u people read?

and modifying ur stock box counts as a MOD... so if the cop wanted to be anal u could still be raped if u modified the stock box.

Don't be silly......

of course nobody reads.

That's why there's a new "defected" thread every week
