This is true. We are currently updating drawings and what not, and I'm hoping to have them by the end of this year begining of next. I'm telling the Powers at "B" here to get this application done, because I keep seeing the want, need, pressured to get one. As soon as I have a firm update with some pictures I will post up some photos.

As for them being street legal, we will be marketing these for competition use only. If you decide to install on of these on your hood, and get pulled over, it comes back on you. We also recomend contacting your local law boys to find out for sure what is "legal" and what is not.

Here is a little teaser shot from our first proto-type on a pulling truck we sponsored.

I don't think it's the sound level that would make it illegal, it would be the obstruction of view. When I lived in VA, I failed an inspection because my A-pillar gauges "obstruct my view."

I know all OHIO cares about is the exhaust dumps PAST the rear of the cab.

I would imagine you can get away with it for the most part in most areas, but watch the local yokels! a lot of cities are hurting for cash and looking for any excuse to being some in.

WoW!!! You could pretty much forget about talking on the phone, listening to the radio, or even carrying on a conversation while driving.....

from what I understand is that the drone isn't to much of difference from having actual stacks, but thats second hand info. I have yet to expierence it myself... I would hate to put a hole in my hood and not like it but my 97 is pretty much on its last leg on being streetable so I'm almost at the conclusion: why not do it and see what happens

Pretty sure the law is the exhaust has to exit behind the passenger compartment.
