basically a red card and you arent allowed to drive to car if you don't fix the problems they find

which would probably mean going back and taking the super charger off if that is even possible

Sorry to hear about your obscure laws not allowing 'major engine modifications'. That really sucks. It's not the end of the world I suppose, it could always be worse.

Do they know enough about modding to spot it if you went with the black pipes and IC?

lets see visible spinning thing where there shouldn't be one.

I am pretty sure that they would notice

and just take it off and put it back on?

I don't even know how much it would cost to just put it on wouldn't be suprised if they ask about 1000 bucks per time

If you've seen GTM's setup, the blower is relatively hard to see.
