The exhaust sound prompted the VI, and as you noted, not loud at all. Haha, if it ruined your day, it really ruined mine. Was minding my own business, and driving like a saint. My understanding of the officers Db meter, it's more a prop than anything, because all he needs is reasonable suspicion to issue the VI, regardless. Ironic your a CVSE Inspector, because he even handed me a two page double sided copy of CVSE VI regs and rules, along with the tickets. This officer really had everything set up. Trolling for anything that looks remotely "tuned", at a busy downtown intersection, on a beautiful sunny day when "nice cars" are cruising. And of course it was " that infamous" officer. I noticed, in my rear view, his buddy officer pulled up l behind me later, and I couldn't help noticing the knowing smile and cute little wave, from his buddy, like it's a great game or something. I'll comply with inspection of course. But what a royal pain in the ass. Really puts a damper on car hobby😒

Hey are you able to scan/take a photo of the the CVSE VI regs and rules sheet the officer handed out to you? I'm curious to see what these traffic cops are going with.
