depends on the copper i guess, i know a few guys who helped me out with my corsa had issues with them in their RS turbos years ago argued that the raised peak of the bonnet ends could be dangerous, cant see them spotting a small lift tho thats what im going for.

Unless it's actually cooling your engine down it's completely gay, can't see it being illegal though.
