regarding gintani sport exhaust

just got one gintani sport catback exhaust. The sounds is very beautiful and loud. I am thinking about the possibility of be pulled over by cops.

Will cop pull me over when I accelerate from 0 to 40mph and shif up under 3k rpm like regular drive? and what will happen and what should I answer if cop pull me over?

I was running the Gintani Race (axle back) when I had my M3. I didn't get pulled over once because of my exhaust. I live in the valley, only issue was speeding lol. You shouldn't have any problems.

he'd most likely stop you for tints or no front plate (if you have this as well) before the exhaust, however once pulled over they "might" add-on the aftermarket exhaust. but exhaust alone would be highly unlikely IMO

I was thinking about this thread yesterday as I'm driving behind some super loud, obnoxious Harley. You can hear that thing from 2 miles away. I had to roll up my windows it was so obnoxious.

how can the cop prove it's aftermarket?

I doubt they know what a stock M3 exhaust looks or sounds like...
