hey was up i have 1990 integra ls with a RS*R ex mag exhaust and i was driving to work today it was about 6 am and i got pulled over because my exhaust was to load i know my exhaust is not load you can barely hear it i was shifting like at 3 rpm. will i just want to know if there a way i can fight this i live in up state new york i just want to know what proof i can show them that my car is not load and its under the (whatever its call) reading lol you know what i mean. i hope. plz help i want to fight this

 

Here in cali, i know the state ref can test to see how loud your exhaust is and see if it under the legal decibal

 

That sucks man, i hope i dont get one i am low on cash

 

i don't think they do that here i wish they did i know my car not over the decibel reading i just have to find a way to show the judge

 

I would just pay the 10 bucks, and put back on the stock muffler and take it chp and get it signed off.

 

how does that work when the OP lives in new york?

 

Sorry didn't see where he was at, i assumed it was cali, since somebody gets a ticket for a muffler, or something modified and end up being from California.

 

Well, first thing to do is find out what the decibel limit is in NY, since I doubt the cop that pulled you over USED a freaking decibel reader when he gave you the ticket. It's a bunch of BS of course, since the ticket is probably subjective to how loud the cop THINKS your exhaust is.

"In response to complaints from SEMA and aftermarket exhaust system manufacturers, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) has issued new guidelines to clarify state exhaust noise regulations for use by all interested parties. The new guidelines make clear that aftermarket exhaust modifications do not in and of themselves violate muffler noise regulations unless the modifications result in noise levels exceeding California's 95-decibel limit."

So what? 95 decibels at idle? 2000 RPM? 5500 VTAKK RPM? 8000 RPM? These a-holes need to be more specific, since it's too easy for a cop to pull you over, give you a fix-it ticket (that isn't FREE to get cleared of course) and have you waste your time getting it checked out...JUST because they think it's too loud.

Here's the whole thing if you guys want to read it.

But then again, if you're stupid enough to still have an APC fart can on your 90 hp DX CRX, then you deserve to get pulled over

 

will i thk NY reading is at 95db also

 

Go look up the db sound of your exhaust if they do show it online. If info and there you have as proof. If not put a silencer in that exhaust and get that thing sign off...ifthe ticket you have is a correction ticket.

 

i cant get a silencer i dont think they sell it for my exhaust its a RS*R GT II

 

wait never mind that post its a exmag think of my old teg

 

you can weld a glass pack somewhere between the cat and muffler

 

does the exhaust looks like this

if so greddy might make one that fits or other companies. worth a shot. the exhaust does'nt sound that loud, it should be ok to be legal.

$134 tickets.
fuking cops

 

yup thats the one i got

 

and guess what.
the ticket is a traffic violation.
goes on my record.
cops are so fuking stupid

your problem solver

weld this after the cat and before the muffler

 

Eastern Washington Is where it's at... Never worry about thieves, and I've got loud *** Skunk2 on my gsr. It's great up here. I'd DD a Type R if I had the money.

 

damn that sucks. f***in cops for real they pulled me over because another hatch passed me like at 100 mph and said i was racing when i i clearly changed lanes all the way to the right to let it pass. they gave me a ticket but luckily i got it lowered to $200 and took driving class to prevent a point on my dl. i wish i could have had proof that i wasnt racing especially when its on the freeway its hard to prove things but good luck with that man im pretty sure you can get a judge to let it go.

 

No it doesn't.

 

i'm in cali.had'nt had this kinda ticket.wow.....

 

well i hope you dont get raped to hard for your "load" car lol.
