Going to the states at christmas for a few days - with the dollar/pound exchange rate so strong at the moment i want to pick up a turbo and management system while i'm out there...
Would i be able to carry that as hand luggage?
Will be flying business class if that makes any odds?

Imo it will be to heavy bud. + the yanks will probably have a fit if they see it go through the x ray machine, You are forgetting most yanks dont know what one looks like. They will think its a fancy bomb and pop a cap in your ass.
Just take less clothes then and stick it in the case on the way back. Oh and put a sticker on it saying 'Hello i am second hand.....honest' incase you get nabbed at the gate. Will make them laugh if nothing else.

10K+ Poster!!
I know someone who took a T4 and various other parts out to Barbados to repair a car competing in the Carnival, that was a while ago now though and things have changed.
My mum once brought back a full on oldskool Divers helmet back from LA years ago now that was funny getting through customs etc.. ha ha
Said diving helmet :

I'd open it all out there anyway to inspect it - so might be able to pass it off as second hand anyway?
Alternatively i'll just empty my case and leave my clothes in the departure lounge
