my exhaust ticket update......
so i go into chp in el cajon ca.
Me: i got an exhaust ticket idk y. officer: do you have the ticket me: ya but im not going to lie i have a moddified exhaust i just dont see what illegal about it could you help? we get up and go out side he sees the pipes and has a shocked face but just asked me to start it. he heard it backfire a little and told me to hold it at 4k rpms. after a few seconds of my fits throttle actin funny he said it wasnt too loud to be illegal. so we go inside and he goes and pulls out a FAT book of all the 2010 vehicle laws. he reads a section and he looks up at me and says.... "well this only matters if the exhaust is sticking out the side and since yours is straight up and down its LEGAL" Me: thank you so thats it i just got to mail it back with 25$ right? Officer: yup so in all i think i win! i keep my pipes |
Cool. I'm not familiar with Cali law... why did you have to pay $25?

in CA, when you get a fix-it ticket issued to you and you get it signed off by a peace officer, you still have to pay the darn $25 fee. |
wow, there's definitely something wrong with that

Thanks for the thread. I have an exhaust ticket right now and instead of getting it checked out, I am fighting the ticket via a written trial. If that doesn't work I'll have to visit the CHP and I'll take the same approach as you. :)

whats the actual dB threshold for it to be illegal?
|
CA has some "cbr900son" laws and processes. ill never move there!

you dont have a muffler.. the exhaust IS illegal... You just got lucky and found a officer who didnt look under to check.
|
what do you mean straight up and down? or do you mean straight down and up?
|
konespeed. You honeslty do not even want to see the answer to your question look back to the original thread the OP posted. We all agree with the ticket.
|

There was a law in Texas that would allow trucks to not be required to have mufflers if it had vertical stacks that extend something like 10" over the top of the cab..... I think it is still in effect.

Is there a curve to create extra backpressure?
