Yep, got a ticket for Loud exhaust. I was dumb enough to admit I had an aftermarket exhaust when the cop asked about it.

Turning onto a wide street, I accelerated hard in first and second gear but slowed down immediately not to speed and coasted along in 4th. Cop heard me accelerate from a few blocks away and pulled me over, he looked frustrated that he couldn't get me for speeding so gave me a ticket for the loud exhaust.

Law in Illinois doesn't say anything about decibels, but it does state your car cannot be louder then stock. So I guess this means after market exhausts are not illegal here as long as they are not louder then stock.

Ah well, time to tone it all down a bit, anybody want to buy some BERK HFC's? (Not getting rid of the CBE though)
