I'm sure they want to stay quiet 'cuz they probably did somethin' more stupid to get towed. =P
My bestfriend's brother-in-law trained with Rosette (he pronounces it Rosetti) and also said to be cautious when driving there as well...

Funny how I just asked a question and got all this...good times

I dunno, but I only have an up-pipe cat, and I don't smell anything. Plus my car is very quiet. I find it quite strange that next to my friend with a prodrive axle-back, you can't even hear my car unless i'm revving it up considering I only have 1 cat... not even a resonator. No trouble with cops and exhaust so far, and hopefully never will.

See the thing is, is that the uppipe doesn't really hold emissions unless in the morning due to the weather. And I think if you have an STi it's already catless? That 1 cat does make a difference.

It all depends on the officer pulling you over, typically it if they have you pop your hood and you have the typical FMIC, intake setup there is a high chance of impound. More times than not though it is easier for them to send you to state ref.

If any police officers are reading this all my cars have at least 4 cats on them and I never speed......

Actually I'm sure cops are always on here, as they are other forums and the BARFs. They just don't say much.
