ratedZ Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 ...prolly a dumb question as I would think that the answer is YES but just to be sure as I'm hacking my exhaust off soon. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 Everything from behind the Cat rearward is not regulated by EPA, so you can do what you want to it, that's why 'Cat-Back' systems have become so popular. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 Don't forget the sound laws. Most places set it at 90 decibells (sp). Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullbound Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 check your local laws. some laws require that the exhaust remain in the same form as original. that is, the exhaust tubing can be whatever size you want, so long as it retains the same number of cats or mufflers. there are loopholes with all laws though. just be observant. they usually dont say anything to harley-owners with straight pipes.... and that's really loud. and according to the police in this area, as long as you have mufflers (or what appear to be mufflers), it doesnt matter how loud the exhaust is. in most areas, driving a car on the street with no muffler(s) is against the law. if you get caught with no muffler, you will get fined. my friends 400 sbc-powered 240 had dual 3" exhaust with 2 chamber flowmasters that would stop your heart. the police commented to him more than once that it was really loud. but, once they saw the mufflers, they said it was okay.
