I noticed a lot of "rapp" when you accelerated away from the camera. You probably notice a similar "rapp" noise when you let off the throttle and coast. When most guys with a loud exhaust see a cop in the area, their first reaction is to let off the gas, but then that characteristic "rapp" would give you away.

The only way to get around that would be to push the clutch in, but that itself could cause problems because you're more worried about getting busted for a loud exhaust than whatever else may be going on around you. IIWY, I'd look in the classifieds section for a good used aftermarket exhaust, or prowl the salvage yard in Rancho Cordova for a modded car that may have one.

lol thanks. il keep that in mind. The only reason i have this exhaust on my car was because i sold my 3inch ERZ exhaust (pics on my photobucket folder) It was too big for me and money was short. thanks though.
