I've been behind C's ride in meets when he's had it a WOT and if you close your eyes, you would seriously believe that you were behind a Formula 1 car.

The offroad use systems we have are marked. They are usually on the parts that effect emissions.

My Ride: 2004 545i - Bone stock... help!
In UAE, it's illegal to modify exhaust. At the annual check, you could get rejected to renew your registration, and can get fined for noise. This last year, I tested the waters and just got compliments and it passed ;D. Won a 100 AED bet with a friend who said I was cooked, lol.

Sounds like he pulls you over everytime trying to muster up the courage to ask you out and fails miserably everytime. He sees you drive by and thinks "todays the day"

No problem here. I don't have RPI but have a louder setup. No extra attention. I just cruise by so the exhaust doesn't scream.

john i actually got pulled over again.. by the same cop. this is probably number 6 from him..for tint.(NEVER A TICKET THOUGH).. always! this time i made him laugh though.. (im trying adifferent approach).. i asked him if he remembers me. why does he bother.. lol.. hes so stiff and highway-ish.. but i had him crakcing a smile.. im gonna break this stiff jerk down so eventually he waves to me! lol.. he must have knowwn me cause when i handed him my license and reg, he goes "what else ya got" so he knows who i was. remembers my cards and badges, he was just being a tough guy. he smiled and walked away once again telling me to "have a nice day" i figured being a bitch didnt get me anywhere, and if im gonna see him frequently i might as well make nice..

i think im seriously growing on him.. i saw him today all kidding aside, and he was in a blue and white this time, and when i turned the corner- he looked down at something. papers, etc. maybe he remembered me? but whatever it is he chose to ignore me. so, my kindness and charm is working
