Yeah i also agree its something about the driving or something you did. I have a Saturn SC2 that is open exhaust right after the cat. The exhaust fell off about 6 months ago and never got pulled over and looked at and its extreamly loud. Also my Merkur has a straight 3 inch exhaust right off the turbo with a singel 3 inch in and out hollow muffler with just a 3 inch tail pipe, no ricer coffee can. Also my old truck had the exhaust fall off right after the gutted cat. It was a Ford f150 with a 300 inline 6. Also extreamly loud. I got pulled over but they never bothered my exhaust. I think the coffee cans are a dead giveaway.
