Anyone got pull over cause of your after market exhaust yet?

Apoc370z · 07-20-2011, 03:26 AM

I am about to drop some money on a new exhaust system but i cant help it but to wonder. Especially living in cali and in a cop infested city is kinda holding me back a lil.

Anyone got cited for aftermarket exhausts yet?

Aftermarket exhausts aren't that loud. It gets loud when you throw on test pipes or something like that. Good luck with install

Nope, not yet in the 370.

I have been pulled over in my 350 for an illegal exhaust once before.

I have the GT Haus tail piece..its pretty loud at 4k+ rpms but haven't been pulled over yet. We will see if i get the mid-pipe though

KillerBee370 · 07-20-2011, 10:17 AM

Never happened in my Evo and hasn't happened since Feb 09 in my Z.

kenchan · 07-20-2011, 10:39 AM

not yet for me... but only time will tell.

my muffler isn't nearly as loud as a full catback but still it's not quiet either.

I have the test pipes and the greddy turbo exhaust and I haven't got pulled over yet...

Knock on wood

Never been stopped in my Z and it is by far the loudest car I have ever had. But I have been stopped a million times in my 99 G20 with a custom Cat-Back, a few times in my 06 Spec-V, and once in my Altima and my Altima was quiet with the Stillen Cat-Back.

Not yet. It doesn't get loud 'till 4K anyway. Testpipes and CBE. There are too many distracting Harleys for them to pick on my little 370Z. There is a Harley dealership right across from my office.

The problem isn't with aftermarket exhausts itself. The problem is with idiots who drive like Wangan Midnight that also have aftermarket exhausts themselves.

Once a cop see the type of car with aftermarket exhaust that drives like a nut, they profile them like nuts. Be fortunate there isn't much 370z in Orange County. A good number of cops still think they "kinda" look like Porsches.

Never in my z, but I have been pulled over for (stock) exhaust in my wrx.

TacoZ · 07-20-2011, 01:37 PM

No, they only pull over Hondas with exhausts in the OC.

Synack · 07-20-2011, 01:42 PM

They only pull over if its a horrible sounding exhaust. Like the kind from Autozone you put on a Civic. "Farrrrrrrrrrrt Farrrrrt Farrrrrt 35mph Boom!"
