You and Al probably have 2 definitions of "street legal". He probably means the car is very streetable, has full exhaust, bumpers fit fine, nothing hanging off, Pretty much while driving, you only see a frount mount intercooler and exhaust. As far as actually legal by State Law terms, well you may see a lot of people run delete pipes, so the cat is gone, which in turn violates state law, So No

it's funny how how there's more room in the engine bay when you don't have AC, no upper strut bar, half size radiator, small battery, and no air intake or filter.

Al

I drive my car on the road all the time too but lets not pretend they are in any way street legal

No Cat
Roll Cage
No Emission control
5 Point belts
Muffler
Dump Tubes
ECU
Crash Beams (Front and Rear)

Im not sure all the laws we are violating but there are plenty more Im sure

Road going it is, street legal it isnt by any stretch of the imagination.

There is a huge difference between road going and street driven on the one hand and street legal on the other hand

I greatly amire the Hell's Angles are other 1%'er bikers who generally run staight pipes and other totally illegal set ups obn their bikes in definace of just about every motor vehicle law

Not only am I going to drive this thing on the road, I aqm going to laugh my *** off when some cop tries to figure out which equipment violations to issue me.

I have been driving it for some time on the road and I have found that the cops generally wont mess with you if you are obeying the speed limit and not doing burn outs like some SRT4 kids.

Its no longer a dialy driver my any means but it is a very road going car still and I fully intened to enjoy it a lot this summer.

Next week when I am at Buschur I am going to give my customers fun rides in it up and down the road - if Buschur lets me - just as I have always done in the past

There is nothing more fun than taking a car like this out on the highway for a quick shot of 3rd gear , its something that you would never forget
