While I can see the legal angle of them cracking down on "cat back" systems (Not that I agree) if they try to go after you for using a muffler approved for sale and use *on road* I think they would be SOL, wouldn't they? :unsure:

Not at all. You have guys that are getting tickets on their STOCK SRT4's for being too loud. <_< :angry:

Like I said, lots of guys here in Ottawa are getting these tickets. The boards have been flooded with them lately and every single one that has fought them, lost in court.

One guy with a WRX here has gotten 4 tickets for improper muffler/noise this year alone, and after loosing the 1st one, he just keeps paying the stupid fines now. this guy even brought a video of him testing the exhaust with a DB meter from a whole bunch of different angles. Even had a track guy on the video explaingn how they determine if a car is too loud for track use as some tracks ( I think most tracks ) have a maximum decibal reading you can reach.

Didnt do s*** in court.

I dont agree with it at all, I think its fawkin stupid, but this is what happens when you give the police too much power. They abuse it.
