pulled over for exhaust
 
Has anyone actually been pulled over for their exhaust being too loud?? what happened?

your from Davis, CA? heard those cops are a** there. i've been pulled over once, all they told me was after market exhaust are illegal but in the books it saids if it's under 92 db it is legal. so if you do get one and you know for sure you are under that noise level then you can bring it to state ref but then due to California's budget cut they are mostly closed. maybe you can bring it to a police station and have them check it out and write it off. but lots of people have gotten these tickets

Ya im from davis, good thing for me i know a lot of the local cops so the chances of one of these tickets sticking to me around here isnt high, and yes im running a magnaflow muffler with 2.5 in pipes back to the cat

Generally, any noise related tickets are strictly based on local ordinances, not laws. So you can have no problems in one area, go to the next suburb or city over, and have alot of problems. Of course, it's common in all area's that any overbearing noises after dark are against ordinances.

That helps, my exhaust isnt terribly loud so unless im gunning it im not too worried
