New law just went into effect in CA for “loud exhaust”. Drivers face a mandatory $1000 fine instead of a fix it ticket. This is not an emissions thing. It impacts all vehicles under 6000 lbs except for motorcycles including older pre-smog cars and trucks. If your exhaust is made in any way to amplify sound over OEM you’ll need to return it to oem configuration and pay the fine. The limit is 95dB but sounds like they can nit pick if it looks shiny or doesn’t sound like a bone stock Camry. I guess it’s aimed at the straight pipe/stance boyz ...but a big block Torino at a Cars and Coffee can get caught up with that law too now. You 49 state guys got it easy . Meanwhile here in “the other state” I got ported ‘94 stock manifolds to 2.5 tube magnaflow CA legal cats into I believe 3.5-4”tube back to 2.5 and a couple dynomax. What do you recommend...(besides moving to a normal American state). It sounds raspy and loud in bad way and I wanted to change it anyway.
