Default Side Pipes

Nassty, I hear what you're saying but if we are all encouraged to think on a global front wouldn't we be better off lobbying the powers that be to allow working SP's??? By this I mean if the HOT ROD fraternity can get their working side pipes plus a host of other "legal mods" OK'd, then why can't we.

It seems crazy as hot rods are all one offs. A modded cut and shut illegal derivitive of a once legal street car. None were ever homologenised in their respective HOT ROD form. In fact the truth be known they were illegal when these guys modded their cars 30 years ago!

My way of thinking is that at least Cobras were a real production run and all we're doing is trying to recreate what actually was???

This is off thread/topic I know, but I for one will be running working side pipes and will also prepared the results. I guess if you know what you create is illegal according to the ADR rules then you can't complain when you get pinged!

Nassty, sadly you're so right though... it only takes one inspector to create havoc for many!

Just my 2cents worth.
