State Referee
Hey guys, does anyone know where I can go to get my ticket signed off? Im in city of industry. Also do I need to make an appointment or can I just go in? Thanks
Yup...its pretty bad, heres the story:
I had a test pipe and the invidia G200 exhaust installed on my car. Having the test pipes is just asking to get pulled over. So friday night im at ontario mills I get pulled over and the cop just gives me a "loud exhaust" ticket. Then monday morning in city of industry on valley blvd on my way to work a cop follows me for a good 5 minutes then pulls me over and says that he can smell the fumes coming outta my car and that he knows i have no cats he then gets checks under my car and then writes me a ticket having my catalytic converters removed so I just put everything back to stock and need to get it checked by a state ref...
im pretty scared of what the fine will be when i go to court

That story definately didn't help me, as im going to install my resonated test pipes this week 
. I know the risks im taking, but the exhaust I am complementing it with isn't too loud to begin with. How loud is the G200?
Hope the fine isn't too bad. It seems as this is more than just a fix-it ticket.

I hope the smell isn't too bad. But I guess I will find out. I'm not a crazy driver on most days; I keep the revs pretty low and the loudness of the exhaust is quite controllable. I just hope I don't end up with the same bad luck as SpeedNStyles
Hope the fine isn't too much for you.

as for the CAI, which one do you have? does it have a carb legal sticker on it? if not, then you're screwed. slap the stock intake back on.
