Driving home from class tonight, I caught a light with a Chicago PD squad car. Two cops inside. The driver motioned for me to roll down my window.

- That's an Evo right?
- Yeah.
- Stock?
- Stock-ish. Exhaust, boost controller, flash.
- What kind of exhaust?
- * Oh ****, maybe he smells I'm catless * It's a Greddy Titanium.
- * Both cops nod approvingly * Nice. Where'd you get it flashed?
- AMS.
- Where's that?
- They're in West Chicago.
- How fast is it?
- I just got into 12's but I'm hoping for faster this year.
- * Another nod * Yeah, maybe it was just a slow run.
- Hopefully.
- Have a good night. *Both give me a thumbs up *
- Thanks, you too.

Not quite what I expecting when he had me roll down my window.

Especially for those who know what suburb cops are like around here, Chicago PD FTMFW.

Anyone else have something similar happen to them?

dood judging from the questions they were asking it may just be that one if not both have some kind of performance vehicle... most cops don't know poop about EVOs or Japanese performance vehicles for that matter.

Was hoping this would stay in Evo General so we could get more stories from other cities.

Not quite as cool as yours but i was doing 95 in a 35 and cop pulled aside me and asked me if i was trying to see how fast the car goes (i still have temp tags) told him i was testing proper operation of my boost gauges lol he just said to not do it again and drove off with a few cusswords thrown in there.

Well i had cops ask me about my exhaust on 2 separate occasions out in the NW burbs. They wanted to write me a ticket each time for my exhaust. Which is BS cuz im running stock still and they didn't believe me. lol that's how much most cops know about the evo
