    Also, the only place I know in SoCal for exhaust inspection is in Woodland hills but i think its CHP and I would like to avoid them. Anyone know a shop nearby?

    Isn't it a federal offense to run catless?

    i got the same ticket,
    take ur test pipe off go take ur test, when you pass it bring it to court, prove ur right, ur ticket will get written off, and you can put the test pipe back on.

    Re: I got a speeding ticket/tint/modded exhaust!

    Never got an exhaust ticket before so asking.
    Whats involved w/ the test at a Ref station? Is it at the college itself (if so, who administers the tests? College rent-a-cops or? ) or the CHP station up the street from the college?
    Is this the only place to get it written off? Or can I goto the sheriff station in Newhall?
    I know there's a decibel test which I know Im under that limit but not sure what else is involved. Any insight is appreciated.

    Thanks

    The Ref station is just a state cetified shop for testing the sound decible. Its not a rent a cop or CHP... When I went it was a mechanic and a student. They are not all at college's, Just our local one. It has to be located somewhere were there is no traffic to effect the test. Also you can only get tested if you have already recieved a ticket... You cant just go in from what the guy told me. Sheriff station probably does not have the equipment to test this. Good luck!!!

    Oh I already got the ticket. Ive just been sitting on it and its coming due 6/2 so I need to get it signed off before the due date rolls around.

    Thanks for the info, Ill call the number posted above tomorrow and see what's up.

    They just do decibel test? or like a smog type test too?

    Cool, if its just that, I have no worries. I dont need any paperwork right? Just my ticket showing the violation?

    ^^ My Sheriff buddy couldn't write mine off because it was marked non correctable. He even new the dick head that gave me the ticket... worst part was, he was just a reserve.
