California AB1824 (exhaust system)

I hope the pre 1976 cars are completely exempt.

Meaning, a loud exhaust won't get you in front of the referee, yes, that's what they're called. I'd never heard of that until today. If they can drag you in front of the referee, why won't it cost the same $1000 ?

I think this will play out pretty quickly, I hope.

It's pretty hard to argue against this, when the cause, so they say, is because of the youngsters doing fast and furious type stuff by shutting down intersections doing doughnuts, street racing and the fatalities because of it.

Their goal is to not only get the loud exhaust off the street, but to also get the owners for any other mods that aren't legal.

I don't know how this is going to play out, time will tell.

Until then, any recommendations to a set of mufflers with good sound that won't get the PO POs attention?
