yeah, db test wont do a thing... anything aftermarket or modified before or including the muffler is illegal. Which is ****ed up, because technically a Midas or other "replacement" exhaust is aftermarket, making them "illegal" as well.
So basically in NY, we can put a tip (or tips) on the stock muffler and call it a day.
I'm gonna come up with something new... im sick of getting tickets for something that isnt even loud. At an idle, I can hear the intake sucking air over the sound of the muffler, and thats standing near the REAR of the car!! Ridiculous.
BTW- If I took 2 paxil, i'd be trippin face... only one a day.
