Default Stock exhaust question

Ok, so today I get busted for having a "loud exhaust" (thank you officer jack-a$$) So..since I gotta take mine off, and I don't want to go back to the stock EX exhaust, I would like to know if a stock cat back exhaust from like a GS-R (96-00) would bolt up on my 99 EX?

Thank you all.

Why not get a resonator put on, or maybe a silencer for your muffler???

A friend of mine has a resonator on his..and it sounds awful, like a pack of really pissed off bees, mine does not.

I'm really considering the silencer, but its only supposed to drop the sound by 7 Dbs...which I don't think would be enough...unless you know of a good place to get a nice silencer???

Get an Apexi World Sport. I have one. You get both looks and performance without the loudness.

Ok D17y8Joe, what kind of exhaust system do you have? Basically, any chambered style muffler will be quieter than a straight through(Tanabe Racing Medallion, Apex-i N1). If your exhaust performs well, then just replace the muffler with a chambered one like Apex-i World Sport or DC Sports.

Its a "custom" setup with a straight pipe and a greddy exhaust/canister.

I talked this over with my g/fs dad (he is a cop) and he said that I don't need to take it off, and that I shouldn't, since my car really isn't that loud and the cop probably only pulled me over since my car is "flashy" and I'm a young guy. He said that my car isn't anywhere near as loud as a Harley or any of the big V-8s with flowmasters on them, basically he said "screw 'em"....he's one way cool guy/cop.
