I was pulled over for a noise ordinance in Fort Wayne at midnight one night.

Me, my cousin and our gf's were driving home from the bowling alley in the city, going north out of the county and city.

As i pulled away from a stop light, and got about 2/3 through the left turn at the intersection, my gf said i was getting pulled over. A cop was two lanes over and heard my car, pulled me over and got my liscnense.....

When he came back he said that the cars pipes were too loud, and asked if i was heading out of town. I said yep. He told me not to bring the car back into the city with that exhaust or he would pull me over next chance he got and give me a sound ordinance ticket instead of just a warning.

Being polite I asked him what the 'limits' were, or what it would require for him or someone else to pull me over. He said that with those pipes, it wouldnt matter what I was doing, if he heard it, i was getting pulled over.

He was polite and all, but it was still kind of gay that i wasnt doing ANYTHING but driving refularly.

Ive got Borla Stingers and a MAC o/r H

Shame on you for putting an x-pipe on a 5.0.. Get an h and I bet you'll love it more.

Yeah ive been pulled over a couple of times but not for it being loud becasue most of em said it sounded good! They would most likely get after u for showin out with it;like burin out in grocery store parking lots or hossing it to redline everytime you meet a car!

i was in a parking lot and a cop who was getting out of his car stopped me and said the exhaust was too loud. he was a campus cop and was a jerk about the whole thing too. he was very sarcastic the whole time and was like "i bet you have all your cats taken off too, and thats illegal." i was like no, but you are welcome to get under the car and look. he told me he could hear me coming from over 100 feet away...even tho i was shifting at about 2k rpms. he said some1 else would give me a ticket cuz its too loud...but he didnt mention anything about giving me a ticket...i dont think he could have i think he was full of crap. i asked him about buses and stuff on campus...and semis on the highway...and he said you can only hear them from that far away when they are slowing down and have their j brake on. a load of crap...the busses on campus are so much louder.


my exhaust right now consists of unbolted stock pipes behind the cats but in front of the mufflers. its loud, but not that loud. i plan on getting my exhaust done either over spring break or summer at the latest.
