Having a cop next door can be a bane or a boon. Fortunately for me, the cop I lived across the street from was the same age and a car guy. He has ridden with me on more than one occasion while 'testing' my cars out 
I have not read all of the replies, but have you tried talking with him? Have him over for a beer? Of course he might just be a ***** by nature, good luck man...

Yes...because when cops are off duty...they're off duty. They don't have a responsibility to report crimes they witness while "off the clock." It wouldn't be that hard for a neighbor (i.e. the cop) to phone in a complaint. The cop that lives next door doesn't have to be the one that writes up the report.

Its like this if you have kids and there outside playing and someone hits them while driving like an idiot then its ok, When I became a cop I didn't sign on the dotted line to just work an 8 hr. shift, when your a cop you are pretty much always on duty, I know what I can and can't do. But you can think what you want. I wrote her for a more serious citation that exhaust.

I find it comical that you've provided a link showing that your car has illegal modifications , yet everyone is calling your cop neighbor a ***** for saying something when he could just write you a ticket.
Magnaflow isn't loud by any stretch of the imagination, but it IS louder than stock. Quiet it down and get cut-outs for when you really want to hear it.
It's plenty loud enough. If you'd worked an evening shift (which many cops do) and had to try and get to sleep while listening to that thing, I would imagine you'd be pretty pissed.

Nope...neither. You don't need to have a law enforcement background to understand how things work. I got umpteenzillion tickets as a kid (ex. speeding, drag racing, reckless driving, etc.). Once I got older, I realized that it was MY actions (not the cops) which resulted in my getting into trouble.
Are they always in the right? No. However, if you follow the law, you give them less of a reason to hassle you.

sorry... many people on here know my feelings for cops...
I won't go into too much detail, but "MOST" of the ones I've ran into are equal to something between morning breath and a used car salesman... actually, I rate those two things much higher on the evolutionary scale...

There is not a db level that a car must maintain around here. We don't even get checked for smog emissions or anything like that yet, we can't enhance an exhaust system.
Here is what the law states : http://www.lrc.ky.gov/krs/224-30/190.pdf
Sucks but I am going to have to do something. Don't really have the funds right now to re-work the exhaust but I am going to do something to keep the peace around here.

Great sounding car, i'm sure hes just a jealous *****. Prolly has ***** envy too LMAO
I got this feeling most cops are cops because they don't know how to have fun and don't want anyone else to. Once i got pulled over for going 89 in a 55 and the cop acted like i was a bank robber or something. I told him to calm down write his ticket and STFU...he threatened me with jail cause i told him to STFU. I told him right out this is the reason cops get no respect. ****** AZZHOLE. I didn't buy a firebird to drive 55 so save it azzhole for the next guy you pull over *****!
Fk it where do you live lets all go there one morning and wake the fkr up to loud pipes.

You gotta live in the bible belt or naziville. Friend of mine lives in NC and has a 03 Cobra and goes through all kinds of crap like this too. Honestly you are gonna let someone tell you you can't enjoy your car? I would be out there revving the **** out of that car until i left EVERY MORNING!
