I just got my O/R H on the other day. I know that pretty much everyone gets them on here, but what kind of tickets can you get for running without cats?

I can pass inspection but I wasn't sure if the cops would ever hassle me. I have only gotten pulled over once in my Mustangs but I was just wondering.

 

I had one on my GT for about two years in my town and never had a problem with the police.

 

yeah...i have only gotten pulled over once for that. I got on the gas to merge (not even floored mine u) onto a bridge and a cop was sitting at the beginning of the bridge and he pulled me over. He thought i was challenging him. lol i couldn't give a crap about his durango cop suv. When he commenced to asked me about my exhuast and said bet you don't have muffler ect, ect. He said he has had plenty of these cars and done everything to them. So i told him i did have muffler and that they were slp lms. He said o-ok (LM aren't even close to mufflers). looked under my car. saw them, guess he missed the cats. Good thing cuz i don't have any (o/r H) he said it would have been a 100 dollar ticket for disturbing the peace (on a fn bridge lol). He let me go though. He hated me.
but when i see a cop around/behind me you better believe i am as quiet as possible. But no i don't get hassled, even get thumbs up from the police at times and raced a unmarked impala SS. Then **** my pants when i saw the lights on the dash, all good though. ok i'm done.

 

Isnt no-cats a federal offense now...Like 10,000$ fines and ****?

 

really? that sucks if that is true.

 

Yup, Federal Offense to run with no cats. They can even impound your car and use it as evidence. I'd love an o/r pipe but I just don't like the whole federal offense deal.

 

Wow.. that's crazy. I just thought you would get a small ticket.

 

For real thats true? I've never heard of such a thing.

 

I also thought it was just a fix it ticket but when I showed up at work with my o/r h a co-worker told me about that law. I didnt want to believe him but looks like its true

 

they can give you a ticket for inadequate muffler which is only a small fine, its bull**** ive gotten one before and i still have cats on my car.
