People are making a big deal out of nothing.

The allowed decibel level hasn't changed in a couple decades. If you didn't get pulled over before for your exhaust, you won't now. All that's changed is that it's now a fine instead of a fix it ticket. I've driven by cops with my cutouts open and haven't got a second look.

Except now there is a financial incentive to stopping and waiting tickets.

Same thing happened in TX with front license plates. It used to be a fix it ticket and rarely did anybody get stopped. Now there is a fine and people get stopped all the time. Follow the money.

You pretty relaxed about this whole thing, I wouldn't feel that comfortable in my opinion! Remember CALIFORNIA is money hungry!!!

San Antonio was horrible with this. Cops would roll up to meets and ticket people, even on private property. Not sure if the guys who got a ticket faught it since I had out of state plates and didn’t need a front

Because it's not a big deal. You still had to pay a fine with a fix it ticket too.

i Agree with Low saturn as well and it really depends on the 5-0 if they're a douche they will pull you over, i live right next to a police station near duquesne and culver blvd, i pass that station always on my morning route and back home always see alot of patrol, never got pulled over " yet " , my daily driver is a Charger srt8 straight with xpipe. been living in that neighborhood for 2 years.

The problem is you live in California. Best move out and get away as far as possible.

Dude you drive a V6 . There is no way it's loud enough to be pulled over. Did you take the cat's off? You don't have headers . So what the hell are you worrying for. It's not a V8 with headers ,no cat's or no mufflers.



Have you heard some of the guys cars on this site? Now they are loud.

Pretty much every state has some sort of exhaust laws in regards to sound and/or modification.

I wasn’t just referring to that. I was referring to the State of a Caifornia and the situation it is currently in...
