If you get caught by city pd or chp without cats, what is the result? Ticket? Hefty fine? Trip to the referee?

I got 10-15 miles better at the end of the tank, but that could've been kuz my cats were clogged up.

I've had an officer write down " advisory loud mufflers" on a exhibition of speed ticket which turned Into racing after a few words. PS: dont argue with the police. Ended up a 30 day hold no referee though. That was with 1 3/4 bbk long tubes 2 1/2 bbk h pipe and cat back single chamber mufflers to 2 1/4 flow master chrome tail back tips. No internals just exhaust. Anyways a dd that's just looking for trouble.

If the cop looks under your car and sees that you don't have cats he can fine you for no cats which is a $2,500 fine.. not really worth it.. your better off keeping 2 cats and getting 10 series flowmasters or slp loudmouth if your goal is too be really loud

I run the offroad X with 40 series and tailpipes. I want to get some of the fake cat shells or something, I dont like the idea of a $2500 fine.

Referees are a full on inspection deal no exceptions anything that is not stock must have eo numbers. And pass the sniffer shells are a good idea even removing plaques from legal headers but once u go to referee they will pull everything up and inspect.

I have run off road on my last 6 mustangs... NEVER once pulled over or checked for it. I don't drive stupid on the street and it seems to keep me out of trouble.

Its all in how u drive,how u act,and where u live really..I've ran O/R x mid pipes for 10+ yrs with the quietest muffler being a 2 chamber flowmaster and anything from race bullets to MAC boom tubes and built foxes to my first cobra, and only had a single reffery/exhaust ticket and that was because I was 17 and dumb reving at a red light at my boy so I asked for it,didn't see the chp bike cop in the gas station lol,but I'm diehard and could GAF less about authority trying to sabotage my hobby an passion,there's way more problems in this state then my x pipe ![[Wink]](wink.gif) ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)

full on smog inspection an db test
Maybe SS396 Chevelle is right about the full smog and db test..Five years ago I got a ticket for modified exhaust..I went to the referee and he did a db test and signed the paper that it passed and he didn't tell me he had to smog it but again this was five years ago.I don't know about today's new laws.. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
