Running a loud exhaust? New to california
yoo so im new to california and I just got a 2012 wrx. Curious if anyone gets harassed for their exhaust. I live in mammoth and I want to run a catback but am nervous about the 95db limit. Im probably gonna go for it an hope for the best but just curious how everybody else hadles it!

You’ll be fine. People make it a bigger deal out here than it actually is. I’ve run aftermarket exhaust in 5 different cars here in Cali. 2 of which on different WRX’s. Been pulled over plenty of times for “other reasons” but never been singled out for loud exhaust.
Just be smart and don’t go WOT in front of cops. |

I don't have any experience with the PD in mammoth, but I've never been harassed in LA county.

From what I’ve read, AB1824 May have been repealed.

I'm not sure about Mammoth, but here in the Bay Area, I've never once had my exhaust even mentioned to me by the police. High flow catted dp, and Cobb catback. It's far from quiet.
Like someone else said, don't go WOT in front of a cop. Don't act like a dummy. I've only been pulled over once in my wrx and the exhaust wasn't even brought up. I honestly think the cop liked my car and just wanted to check it out. Didn't even give me a ticket. |
