yea you can notice them, its a bit hard to hide a alloy turbo shaped charger that sits right where the airbox use to be.. and the noise they make, makes it obvious that there is a supercharger under there...

I assume he meant by law...not by standards.

Agreed with the high percentage of Victorians not getting their boosted E/AU series engineered...supposedly costs a fair bit. While we're on the topic (and sorry to go off tangent here), what is the cost involved to get a boosted E/AU series engineered? I hear people say thousands of dollars some say less...
