Install a carby.Depends where you live as to odds of being caught and how you drive day to day, if you drive like a moron you will be more likely to get detailed scutiny by any authorities you annoy.

I use to order off GMH and sell these bolt in pipes that use to replace the cat convertor in VL Commodores. These pipes were for New Zealand spec VL`s that dont have cat convertors. After a couple of dozen of these pipes sold GM wised up to what I was doing and removed the pipe from the master parts file disabling it to be ordered anymore.
