Sure there are heaps of mods out there and plenty of guys running 'illegal' cars. I'm not taking sides with anyone or condoning one thing or the other. I've just presented the facts for people to interpret how they wish. An insurance company does not have to accept a mod just because you've declared it. For any kind of major mod I would get it in writing from the insurance company that they accept the mod (not just on your cover note). This comes from a colleague of mine who worked in motor insurance for 10 years.

sounds like insurance companies can do whatever they want... but good advice anyway... wouldn't it be on your policy statement.

oh yeah to quote queensland's legislation "Powerchips, multiple and/or replacement carburettors may be fitted to any motor vehicle provided the vehicle continues to comply with the emission requirements of the Australian Design Rules applicable at the time of the vehicle’s manufacture. Air cleaners must be fitted." so for us it doesn't seem like a problem, however i guess when in doubt ring and jump through the flaming hoops of beaurocracy.
