I'm located in SoCal around LA, and I haven't had any troubles with the PDs, yet...
I'm also in SoCal, around the SGV area, so you passed smog and everything with it on?

Depending on how you drive your Z will determine if you get pulled over or not. What is the db level law for exhaust for motor vehicles in California is what you need to find out if there is? Technically in the state of California it is against the law to remove a functioning OEM catalytic converter/s on a motor vehicle. You will pass your smog test with the AAM S Line Short Tail exhaust.
A friend of mine told me it got lowered to 95db or something around there. And yes the Short tails sounds very good for the amount of work I need to do.
