if you have c.a.r.b. legal sticker on your intake and headers you're fine. exhaust I hear so many things, I guess it really depends on the cop.

If your exhaust note exceeds 95db(decibals) then the police will most likely bother you. I pretty much have the same thing in my car except the exhaust and the police doesn't bother me. It's way safer to have Carb legal stickers on your mods, if not the police most likely will give you a fix it ticket or something like that. But, that's how it goes up here in the Bay Area, don't know about LA.

magnaflow's are super loud and sound ricey as hell. You will def get bothered with that. You need a quiet exhaust since someone said its 95db limit.
