that new turbo system that mounts towards the rear of the car on the exaust pipe is made for a Tundra isnt it?
thats supposed to be a hot set up, and 50 state carb legal. btw- new inspection machines for NYS are OBD specific, the car now gets plugged in to the inspection machine, the OBD II computers spit out the VIN# of the car, if anything trips the OBD off the car fails, so the days of tunning new cars that dont have carb exempt products on them are fast coming to a end. |

I would have to see it/feel it to believe it. |

I was just thinking about this today, hearing the turbo spool up in a semi. Well, a rotary isn't a diesel powered piston engine, so you go ahead and write your letter. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
A turbo-fed REPU would suck for towing compared to a supercharged one. |
there is no way around them unless the parts are carb exempt, unless people can hack the cars computer, which would be a federal offense. |

there is a way around it, you just make the stock ecu think its running everything, while its actually not |
that would fall under the catagory of hacking the computer in a way wouldnt it?
I dont think the average joe would be able to trick the computer. |
