Default Anyone running duals dumped and getting hassled by the popo

I've had duals on my car for a few years, and in the past I got one warning for loud and modified exhaust over on Irving going thru Woodale at like 2am.

How are the popo this year? My tendency is to try avoid certain towns like Morton Grove and Hinsdale... Any thoughts on this? My car is loud but not sick loud. I'm running dual x-piped Magnaflow mufflers dumped.

I have found that as long as you dont drive like an azz the cops wont bother you even if you have a loud car.

My car through mufflers sounds like open headers. I get pulled over and then just usually get the no front plate ticket. Depends on the cop, if you get a dick cop that has a hardon then you might as well bend over. Most of the time they have been cool. Driving home at 3am is fun, you just have to know the city limits and sidestreets

Just drive the F!@#$ing car already! I have duals, never a problem. The slicks on the other hand, yes, I have been pulled over for that. Just drive it on the street and don't drive like an idiot import and you should be ok.

I drove around on Duals for a decent amount of time. Never got bothered for those, Never got bothered for slicks, tint, no front plate, or anything else either really though.
