Is he a real cop? If not, tell him to f-off and to give you money for new mufflers and you'll be happy to replace them. Tell him he also needs to cover the labor to install them, since you're not doing it yourself. Ask where in the lease agreement it says what type of mufflers you're allowed to run while you're at it.
I think its illegal because its dumped before the axles
trying to look up laws on it but i cant find any
I doubt thats illegal.
But if it is, just get tail pipes.

he cant do sh**. Tell Him to go buy a set of ear plugs. I live in a townhouse here in NC and My neighbor is a cop too. He told me the same sh**. I asked him what he was going to do about it. He didnt do sh**. if was illegal tell him to go give everyone with a ricer a ticket.

Never mind, didn't see the prochamber. Get some regular magnaflows with some tailpipes. Thats the set up I have with an off road H on my 94 and it's very tame at low R's. It's nice and mellow until you get in it, than it screams. With a prochamber it should be little quieter. I don;t have a cam though.

just putting tail pipes on your car will quiet it down a little. maybe just enough to shut him up.
I'd still tell him to show me the lease agreement that says I can't have a certain type of muffler. The law is one thing, but he can't enforce the Louisiana vehicle code on private property, so unless there's something written into a contract about vehicle noise, he can't do a damn thing about what mufflers you choose to run on private property. Once you head out onto public property maybe, but I'd tell him to take a hike otherwise.
