so i took the resonator off my civic
resonator piping was connected to the resonator
so i left that out too..
all im getting is a louder noise that sounds like a muffler enhancement :/ (2700~5000rpm)
no sucking air noise while driving (well thats the noise another enthusiast explained)
oh, i didnt upgrade to a pod filter, just left the stockbox there
the noise sounds so douche'y, i think im gonna have to upgrade to a POD filter sooner, or throw the resonator back on.........
y no1 reply
your post looks like a statement more than a question, hence why no one replied?
good write up, ahhh i remember when I installed my CAI I did things the hard way and removed the resonator without removing the bumper.
oh,, yeh i have to agree thereQuote:

was just wondering, anyone ever get pulled over for this?
in a civic i mean, i know a bloke whos running turbo in his car n he has that non-turbo car restriction on him (p-platers) but he rckns nobodys gunna pull over a civic.
any thoughts?
is it worth risking your licence and huge fines driving a car your not meant to be in? Better still what happens if he crashes it and insurance will not cover him? lolQuote:

Dont draw attention to yourself and most of the time you will be right on the roads:thumbsup:
^^^^^ +1 on that
dont do any stuid sh1t cops jst love fcuking up p platers over eventually every1 gets caught
Great right up!
And yeah if you dont have hugeee rims with your car dragging along the ground and drive normal then the cops shouldn't bother you.
I had an R33 Skyline with CAI and exhaust etc with 17" rims for almost 2 yrs and never had any cop pull me over for anything other than a random breath test.
it depends on where you drive which will determine the "random stops" by police.Quote:

best case scenario for the cops would be finding a stolen car and arresting the suspect. (they probably have fun arresting pple lol)
worst case scenario for P platers would be getting that defect and a fine along with it.
not necesarily the poorer suburbs. only time i have ever gotten randomly pulled over has been in large drinking areas. glenferrie, city etc.
yeh, pubs definately
, but i was on about everyday driving, normal days n stuff
