Altered Exhaust ticket -IL
Anyone ever got one? I got pulled over on the way to work this morning. Honestly, I could have gotten a speeding ticket, so I guess I'm lucky. The cop said I was getting a ticket for "altered exhaust". He got back in his car without ever writing up anyting and took off. I'm guessing this is something I'll get in the mail.

Sorry about that. I doubt you'll get a ticket in the mail maybe he just realized what an idiot he was and got back in his car and drove off?
Whatever happens please keep us posted.
Sorry to sound so bitter i just hate these police stories, there are way better things they can be doing with their time and your tax dollars. IMO

I've gotten a ticket in Woodridge, IL for loud exhaust, actually it was 3 days after I got my AMS turbo back and I got a HFC, not even a test pipe. Oh well its just an equipment violation not a moving violation.
I agree with you steve, the town I live in we have a cop for every 100 people.... Imagine that in a town of 140K plus.

I hate IL suburbs... come on they print bs police reports in the local papers.. i seriously think vendors should fight back all these laws trying to get passed.. but it all comes back to.. motorcycles are louder and since cops ride them on off days.. they focus on imports instead.. working for harley had its perks though,...

I also got one a couple of years ago when I owned a civic si. Jackass cop said that my exhaust tip was 4" in diameter and it was against the law. I went to court they wanted me to pay $250. Man I said f*** that, I aint payin!

Man, I live in Milwaukee and every freaking day, people are riding around with modified Harleys that sound like they're igniting a pound of dynamite from their tailpipes every time they hit the gas, yet cops pull me over because of my stock exhaust all the time.
When I had my RSX, I had an Apexi N1 catback which imho wasn't all that loud, but cops loved pulling me over.
It makes me sick.

My car is pretty loud, and I've never had any problems with cops because of it... I just shift at very low rpms when I see cop cars. I've actually been thinking about taking my muffler off
