You better be talking about external gates only. Screamers on internal gated setups are for fagots.

As for police attention, no nothing so far but I no longer go to any hot spots/potential problem areas.

check this screamer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrGTTiWvLl0

The penalty will be the same as running no cat.

yep illegal.
emitting exhaust gas before cat converter.

Most general cops wouldnt know.

Ive had 2 state traffic officers at different times go over my car and both tell me that the screamer is illegal. But not do me for it.

I dont have a screamer pipe....just the ext wastegate.

Never been pulled up on it. How would they know u have one unless you are on the gate, or they put your car on a car stand?
