I like how you’ll pass NYS inspection without a muffler but you’ll be written a ticket for a loud exhaust. Someone explain that one to me :wtf ---

> [@H22a in EK hatch](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/h22a-in-ek-hatch/29648/11): > > its all about the $ and nothing more. Bingo. I passed him taking a left turn doing roughly 10 mph at around 1500 rpm’s. He decided it was a good idea to make a U-turn onto Wolf Rd through a red light across 4 lanes of traffic!!! Pretty important stuff to risk an unsafe maneuver I’d say. Once I flipped out my Inspectors license he must have realized I wasn’t some punk kid. My buddy was in the passengers seat, and is also a NYS Inspectors license holder as well. :rofl I also have TWO 50 State legal mufflers in place. A Borla and Magnaflow with 2.5" Mandrel piping. The officer never metered it, nor did he even look at it. He told me to start the car, and at idle he said it was “too loud.” Sorry TOC, no $ for you this time. :thumbup ---

I was waiting for him to say something about my stock exhaust or something else of that irrelevant matter. And he did cut a ton of cars off to pull me over, including going right on red at the intersection of wolf that has a sign stating “no turn on red.” Whatever. No $ out of my pocket so in the end it was just a waste of time ---

It looks like it’s the bottom line base model FWD Lancer. Has the cheesy looking wheels on it and it’s that gay light blue color in which I’m pretty sure the Ralli-Arts & Evo’s are not offered in. ---

not a base but at least an es with sports package. Is doesnt have a moonroof so id assume its not a gsr. And def. not a ralliart/evo because of the front fascia and hood. ---
