I may be moving out to cali next year, and was going to be putting Test Pipes on my car. (I have a borla TD exhaust) Do cops give you a rough time out there? Are TP's not worth the hastle? I was thinking that at emissions time I could just replace TP's with stock cats again....Any info appretiated.

 

Depends on where your going to live in California

 

You may get a better response in the regional forums...

 

Yeah but fewer people read regional forums.

 

depends where you live, cops can be pretty strict in the L.A. area. I dont know if they would pull you over just for having a loud car, but if you get pulled over for anything else and if they are suspicous they may look under your car to see if you have cats. I also drive a 72 camaro (no cats, headers, and flows) and Ive never had a problem and I live in LA county.

 

all you need is drilled through stock cats.

 

ive had testpipes for a loong time.. no harrasment yet.... i guess it depends on the cop.. if they in a bad mood... and what not..

 

So the only real issue would be if i got pulled over and he smelled gas...then he may check?

 

yes, very strict.
they pull ppl over left and right for no front tickets, window tints, loud exhausts.... just don't hang out in Torrance.

 

...

 

Stick with the Borla.
