Default modified exhaust ticket

What does audiworld think...

I got pulled over this past weekend and got cited for a modified exhaust. I took a corner a little to aggressive and then punched it through 2nd then went back to normal cruising speed. I guess a cop saw/heard me from a parking lot so chased me down. Pulled me over down the street, i was going 30 (in a 35) just cruising along. Basically said he had no proof i was speeding and that he would have no case in court. So instead he wrote me up for modified exhasut. Then went and looked and saw I had no front plate and added that to the ticket. He seemed pissed.

I am grateful I didn't get a speeding ticket, but can't I fight this modified exhaust? I heard it gives you points on your record now.

I'm down in socal, happened in torrance. Anybody ever take their citation to one of the referee stations? Will I pass the dB test?

FYI 2000 s4. Neuspeed G2, AMS, evo-intake

Any advice?

Default You know why these kinds of tickets irritate me....

Because chances are most of these cops then go home and get on their Harley and destory every persons ear drums within a mile radius. Its such a major double standard and pretty much profiling young people. Seems to happen mostly in SoCal though and I'm glad I don't live there for that very reason.

Default i thought having it checked by referee station would be the easiet way out...

assuming that is actually passes. then i have a certification incase i ever get pulled over again. i'd rather not be hassled again

that and i really dont feel like actually going to court. i dont know how much work is involved with that.

Default Same ticket with g2 here. I called the guy on the harley BS after he handed me the ticket....

all I got from his was "uhhhh muhhhhhh *head scratch* Ohhh we pull them over too. I wish they wouldn't put those loud exhausts on at the dealer" = caught with head up ***. Oddly enough I had no problems on a later stop with one of the local chp street racing "pop your hood please" task force officers.

Default U deserved it, he should have gotten you for cleared corners too!!!!!!

If you got bagged for that I would have laughed my *** off.

19's and cleared corners one week, pulled over the next. Price you pay for pimpin', and driving like a jack *** ; )

How much was the ticket.
