Yea, just about every mod there is illegal if they wanted to harrass you about it. I think that goes for every state, but the Cali cops just use it to be dicks and an excuse to pull you over.

If you do get a turbo installed, try hiding it with shields and blacken out the intercooler, etc.

can you tell them it's rare Tiburon Special Turbo Edition. There are only (let's say) 100 or 1000 such Turbo Tiburons.
