OK, I decided to go out for alittle drive. I go down Bearss Ave. and make a left onto Dale Mabry and see a cop behind me. Of course you always think "what did I do this time" well I didn't do anything. Wasn't speeding used my blinker and then I saw him fall way back and was behind some other cars so I figured ok good. Next thing I know he pulls up next to me at the light and points to my car. I didn't hear him at first cause of my music. So I turn it down to see what he said. He said "you know that's illegle (sp) right? I'm like huh?? What is? "your exhaust". I said "well it shouldn't be". He said "ok well i'm gonna pull you over and I'll show you. I was like he can't be serious!! So he pulls me over and said he could write me a ticket or teach me. So he brings out this HUGE law book and tells me to read part of it to him about any aftermarket exhaust. So I did. He gave me a warning this time. Dammit!! I got pulled over right near my house so he knows the area I live in. He said "there is no reason at all for it, it's just for noise. Unless you can give me another reason?" I just said "I don't want to get into that" haha. He said it has nothing to do with noise it's just not legal. I'm not taking it off!! I've driven by cops all the time and they don't pull me over. I've even gotten on it alittle with a cop a few lanes over. It's BULLS**T!! Oh by the way I have a 3" turbo back exhaust with test pipe. Ummmmm........ok that is all.

 

should have said it's oem parts trailed off to bs about evo 8 stock exhaust (I know thats not possible but he doesn't. you will win it in court when it comes to that time.

You should have said you needed it because you were going to race wars and you need it so flames shoot out when you use your NAWZ!!!!!

Eh, at least it was a warning, and the guy didn't sound like too much of an asshole, I'd rather a warning then get a ticket because a cop doesn't have anything better to do.

 

Yeah I'm glad it was a warning THIS time. He said it's a pet pieve of his and he has a stack of pictures he took of peoples "illegel" parts on the cars and asked if I wanted to see them......haha. He wasn't a asshole but I just don't want him looking for me now. I asked him how much the ticket would be and I think he said $73.56. I don't want to start having to fit that into my budget for the month.

 

Just take your muffler off...I ran with a 2 and a 1/4 straight pipe with no cat and no muffler, and never once had a cop give me shit for it...Although, my 1g never got more than a look from a cop anyway...

 

I have a 3" Thermal exhaust. I'm not about to cut it up.

 

i've gotten pulled over for that before too and he said that it was because he coult hear it from 5 cars behind me, i only have a 2 1/2 with stock cat so its not really loud at all, but thats probably why he droped back before he pulled you over. i got a ticket for it though, but got it dissmissed because at that time i had a friend that was a deputy sheriff

 

I hear yah..
