i want to change my exhaust... i have a custom ixhaust now but i want to change it... i just watched some rally car racing today and i saw that htey have their pipe come out behind the door but in front of the tire...i was wandering if this was legal or if the cops really dont pay attention to that...
i know you can do that on truck i didnt know if it made a difference on cars or not... if the cops really dont pay attention to that then i dont care...its not gonna be really loud or anything...just something different...
thanks

I know when I lived in Bradford PA that it is legal as long as it exits out the side and not under it. Like your are asking, just make sure its as far back as you can.

could be legal in one spot and not the other. More of a local question, DMV or insp station

i called my exhaust guy and he said that its legal...he said the cops dont like it ans may pull me over for it thinking its not legal but he said just to print off the law and keep it in your car just as a backup...hehe
does anyone on here have it coming out the side like i want...like to see some pics and a couple different styles to see what i like...
thanks

it's legal as long as you a) have some kind of muffler on the car and b) you have some kind of tip on the car thats it.

i have a friend thats running straight cherry bomb style headers on this 82 yj it loud but it's legal and the tip dumps out right in front of the door not even near the rear of the door.
