The man is after me again.

Well guys, it happened - again.

Got pulled over last night for my exhaust. Which is now deemed "illegal", because when the officer has "his windows up and radio on and can still hear it, that's too loud". And since glasspacks are illegal apparently, my whole exhaust is just a law breakin' menace, because anything other than stock is illegal - his words, not mine.

So, I now have a fix-it ticket, in which I have until December 11th to satisfy. Which means I now need to fix it - obviousley. It needs to be checked off by an officer, and if there is a discrepancy, a decibal meter will be put on it.

Now, if I may ask some advice, how can I just get this over with, and get on with my days?

Right now the plan is to buy two cheap turbo mufflers, and hope that quiets it down some. But, I also don't know about the position of my pipe exits, and if thats having an effect on the perceived noise level.

For the record: headers into 26" cherrybomb glasspacks, into 2 inch pipe, exiting in front of the rear tires.

So, suggestions? Ideas? Funds are short, as always. So, the cheaper the better, just so I can get this over with.

Thanks all, I really appreciate it.

-Sam.
