only way a shop will chance putting an exhaust with no cats on a car is if you take the inspection sticker out of the window first. its a big fine if they get caught doing it with the sticker. but most will weld you one up and youll just have to put it on yourself which isnt all that hard. and if you live near Ron and your cool with him maybe ill take a ride down one day and we can throw it up for ya. shouldnt take too long

Wayfast - i wouldnt put these on a v6 its just to know that they sound like on a V8 and I have headers, high flow cat, and flowmaster 80 series and i like the way it sounds. And where do you buy the TSP rumbler?

Johnjzjz- do you know what the Decimal reading is from one of those bullets?

It's decibel, or dB. And what distance are you measuring at?

basically they are real loud, and not street legal, I was going to get them just because of the price, but now Im rethinking it and will just get quieter mufflers

But what is the dB max you are allowed? That's what determines "street legal". I've tested OPEN LS1 exhausts that were within dB requirements.

i think its 93 db but that is the race track -- my guess what may not be too loud on broad st in Newark in the middle of the day is too loud for a cop in Essex fells at 10 pm -- just a side note seems like a 100 years ago when i was younger and when street racing in NYC was the real deal and everyone did it -- the hook to winning money street racing was a quiet car it sounded almost stock ( cept for thr roller ) hahahahahh loud does not make fast only look at me -- jz

Yep, it depends on the area. Usually a bullet will be OK at idle or part throttle but when you go WFO you may attract some attention.

Skinnyguy, you will probably be fine. I have a loudmouth exhaust on my GTP (basically the same thing) and I am fine. There is a lot of drone but I've never gotten in any trouble with any police over the noise.

db would have a lot of otehr factors invovled as well. where it is measured, where the pipes face, and how big the engine/cam are in the car.
i am pretty sure the NHRA uses the same 95db max rule that is applied in federal highway law.
