my step brother runs his 94 z28 with tds dumped at the rear in colepepper. he has never had a problem, and when he went for inspections the shop he went to was pretty much all gear heads so there was no problems

Around here in NoVa, a sticker doesn't guarantee you protection from a ticket. I know anywhere outside of Fairfax County/ Prince William you'd probably be fine with it though.

When it comes to NoVA, it's luck of the draw whether you get ticketed for exhaust or not. I have a buddy with a Mustang GT who got a ticket a few months ago in Stafford for loud exhaust. His car has 3" piping and Flowmasters (not sure what kind). I know my car's louder (3" piping with a chambered pipe in the "I" and no mufflers) and I've not had any problems. I do watch myself on the road and try to keep the revs down if I see the cops though.

this is pretty funny..i live in prince william and drive thru ffax all the time with my dumped true duals and i dont have a problem...also as far as inspection goes having dumped true duals isn't gonna make you fail. Hell i pull in there with dumped duals and a cam and i still pass with no problem

I got hassled one night by the FFX county PD for cruising down the road and I have ORY and Corsa catback on my car. The officer pulled me over and said I needed to make it quieter. He also asked me where my inspection sticker was and I said the car is registered in Florida so it requires none. He didn't like it but had to let me go! LOL!

It's not just about whether or not you pass emissions. That's the easy part. Different counties, and different jurisdictions of local police have different allowable noise levels. I know that in the city of Fairfax (not county) the noise level restriction is tighter than that in the rest of the county of Fairfax.

All I'm trying to get across to the OP is for him to weigh whether or not its worth the hassle. You have to consider that less than 1/3 of the population knows diddly squat about cars...cut 1/10 of that and those are police officers, cut another 1/10 of that and that's how many officers know diddly squat about cars. Get what I'm saying?
Garauntee you that upon installing them..he will get pulled over in the first 6 months living in Alexandria..especially if it's the CITY of Alexandria not just the mailing address with the same name. He may not get a ticket but will be stopped/have a problem with the emissions inspector.
But whatever the outcome could/will be...I've always considered doing it myself.

used to have true duals, i found it wasnt worth the headache of the lack of ground clearance and loss of low end torque (stock cubes), i got hassled a lot by the cops for being too loud and not having cats etc..... even though now. the car is louder with a full exhaust/cats, and electric cutout (until its closed).
