Work in progress I know, but I'm trying my hardest to keep it all hidden away. Is that Cal look?

Not Cal Look?










Not Cal Look?






Not Cal Look?




Yeah, you guys must be right...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes



 


If you've got a sleekly engineered under the deck hidden turbo system that hauls ass, it fits my interpretation of Cal Look. A wolf in sheep's clothing.

They fit the bill to me.

If heaving an exposed, visible turbocharger means that the bug cannot be called cal-look anymore, then what about other parts of exhaust system:



Are those mufflers more aesthetically pleasing then a turbocharger, or they help to keep the wolf in ship's clothing look better?

On an NA car, it's tough to hide a 'performance' exhaust, unless you run a sidewainder or similar header.  Variety is the spice of life, I wouldn't get too hung up on an exhaust system alone.
