did they actually make you rev your engine before they assume it was too loud? if not, then you can fight that one in court.. i did it and made the cop dumbfounded infront of the judge and made myself dismissed..
--------3 criterias to give you a ticket on exhaust-----
1. driving with no muffler 2. too loud 3. rusted muffler

if for some reason.. they listened to it.. then you are in deep shit

no... he did not make me rev my engine... he just pulled me over for my tinted windown and saw that I had an aftermarket exhaust and gave me a fix-it ticket for the exhaust being "too loud" that's all....

he even told me to pop my hood... but didn't see anything wrong except my cone filter which he tried to tell me was illegal.. and I told him it was a K&N and those are legal in all 50 states so he didn't do anythign with that.. (besides he never caught the purty red top in there..which was good for me)

the silencer is the same for non turbo and turbo I belive!?!?! the mufler is the same size in both, I think the only difference is the size of the piping.. IRC!?!?!?

unless some one corrects me..

If I can borrow that from you, that would be a big help... please!?!

yeah, CA is now..."Officers judgment" on the noise level of an exhaust. SUXXX. if he sees it he can say "too loud" and hand you a fix it ticket now. Also, for a fix it ticket, you MAY want to put a stock exhaust back on it. The silencers might not pass. Also, I belive that the N1 single has a different diameter than that of the N1 duals. You might want to look into it. Hope it helps you out! Good luck with it. Btw, what city are you in?

I'm in Brea but I got the ticket in Cerritos <~ hate taht city.. well known for the harrassing cops and highway patrol...

I am going to the state refree on Friday and seeing if I can pass the noise level of 95dbA without the silencers! I hope I pass it... if not then I will have to get the silencers and try again...Since it is not done at the CHP, i'm assuming, they won't report me or anything...

I sooo hope I pass it..

just found out.. the tips ont he N1 are 90mm and so are on the dual N1's... the only different ones are the turbo N1 and GT spec which are 120.. IIRC
