Its a regular Greddy Ti-C exhaust. I am guessing he was referring to the db noise level.

that sucks... Unfortunately, the fix it ticket is at the police digression. You can fight it... dunno if it's worth it tho... your ride is sick tho

I mean it's really stupid cause they don't have to give you a dbl reading.. if they feel it's too noisy (which it can be when you're heavy on the throttle). certificate or not.

If i had a "hot" exhaust. I'd ask for systems I could use and get it in writing. There are LEGAL exhausts

that's weird tho... GREDDY isn't really a loud exhaust... Usually like 86dlb... I think the Stillen and the HKS are well received in norcal.


and that guy can't just be running just a TiC... has to be like catless or hfc... that's hella loud.

YouTube - Infiniti g37s Greddy ti-c exhaust 3.7L 6mt
That one is ridiculously loud. My Greddy is not loud at all. He must have what mw09g37 said, catless or something.

Thanks for the compliment, and yeah I agree that this greddy is around 90db. But like most exhaust systems, even stock ones, at WOT they can sound loud.

Damn Anthony, what the hell man, you must have done someone wrong yo, you been having some bad luck with the mod's, good stuff Raul looking that up.

You must be pissing off some ***** piggies huh Anthony LOL. After I got my ticket from LAPD, the dude was really trying to be cool explaining to me how he hates to give the front plate ticket and it's an easy fix, young rook BTW.
Good luck with getting that resolved, just part of driving a sic non stock G in L.A.

What was the Vehicle Code that he got you for?

Back in the day Trust/Greddy had actual certificates (from CARB or some other board, I forget) for their exhausts showing they were tested for legality and passed.

I successfully fought a modified exhaust ticket with this certificate in my hand. So, contact Greddy regarding certification...if not, just uninstall it, go to CHP to write it off and then put it back on!

fresh recruits out of the LAPD police academy will make 100k+ with overtime their first year.

Believe me, they make more than a lot of people on the board

did you have the silencers on ? funny thing is that I was pulled over a year ago bec of tinted windows and no plate in the front. Fortunately , I replaced the silencers a week before that. The cop told me " im having problems with you exhaust too". I replied " Sir, its under 93 decibels" ( I dont know exactly though , I just remembered the ad from Tanabe's exhaust). I still got a ticket for the windows and plate but not the exhaust.

Wow Anthony. That sucks man! Another ticket. Bad luck dude. Talk to Carlos, he got pulled over a couple months ago for his MXP and wound up selling it because he didn't want the hastle.
