true!
but you guys have a biiiiiiiiiiiiig big country and a lot of areas where law care about more important things

just look at SEMA, i saw cars driving arround... unthinkable in germany. no way
Yea- having law enforcement even have awareness of exhaust system components; never mind enforcing anything is a completely foreign concept to this life-long Metro-NYer. Here in NJ vehicle inspection consists of exactly one thing; emissions testing. You could have 3 wheels and removed the seats and you'd pass as long as your tailpipe emissions are clean. Even so- I haven't inspected any vehicle I've owned since 1994. I've only gotten pulled over twice for it, with one ticket. So I just don't get my car inspected at all.
