i want to know why so many people are getting exhaust tickets? ive never got one before, and i used to have a flowmaster exhaust on my old car. on my new car i still got stock exhaust. but correct me if im wrong i thought their was no emission laws?

 

there are still federal emissions laws, just no inspections in this state
but the law states any modification to your exhaust system is illegal...and if you have no cats, its a federal offense punishable by 5 years in jail and/or a $250K fine

 

don't get "emmisions" confused with exhaust modifications(as in loud fart pipes)

 

i belive if your car or engine was mad before 1974 u can run any kinda exhaust.know matter what because the emission laws where not mad yet.that how i get away with running with no cats on my 93 camaro.

 

nope...its if your CAR...not engine...if the vehicle was designed at a time when catalytic converters were required, they are still required, no matter what year the engine under the hood is

 

damn that sucks cause i was going to run this on my car.

thats one hefty fine.

 

how do motorcycles get away with no cats then

 

the actual broken law is if you remove a cat and dont put one back on...but its the same as having no cats on a car designed for them...but im not sure...there is probably a loophole somewhere like there is for insurance

 

The fine is hefty, but I still plan on running catless d/p.

 

I got a $75 ticket in Georgia for loud exhaust. I didn't have cats, just dynomax bullet mufflers (not the Lightning). I guess that's different than the Florida laaw?
