i guess it depends on the town/municipality your in.
i have had wrong info and beat it before, but i haven't got any tickets in quite a few years.
this is the proper statute # & explaination:
39:3-70 MUFFLERS
"Every motor vehicle having a combustion motor shall at all times be equipped with a muffler in good working order and in constant operation to prevent excessive or unusual noise AND annoying smoke, and no person shall use a muffler cut-out, bypass or similar device upon a motor vehicle on a highway"
