Default Junkyard Turbo Encounters?

I was wondering, for those who got pulled over and got there hoods popped what did the cops make you do when you had a junkyard turbo in there? Instantly a 1,000$ ticket? or they ask you to take it off?

i dont think it matters if its junkyard or not. i doubt the cop would let you go if he found a holset top mount, or a saab 48/42....

what matters is CARB exemption, and the only way to get this is through buying an edelbrock kit, or a greddy kit (matched to your car.) you can look for phony stickers, but they're getting harder to find...

i believe you'll get a ref ticket, but dont quote me here, do some research!

So you left cali and moved to Oklahoma so you can mod your car?? I would have picked a better place than Oklahoma or just bought a faster car.

All you get is a ref ticket. If you get it signed off you could fight the ticket and win.

alright so, ill get pulled over, get a ref ticket, if i take it off they wont charge me? ( ive never had a ref ticket before so i wouldn't know how they work )

because i got a deal on a complete turbo setup for 500$ and im thinking on boosting for the hell of it (not the cheap ebay ****) just to get the taste of the turbo. but i wouldn't know what to do if i got pulled over and whatnot. my freinds told me the cop told em to take it off and that was it.
