Side exit exhaust in Colorado? Is it legal?

Just wondering...

Side exit, like side pipes on Vipers? Or side exit through the front bumper? If it involves a cutout, it's illegal in Colorado, so a short dump off the DP is illegal (but I've got one anyway). If it's got all the emissions intact, and it's quiet enough, then it can exit anywhere and be legal. So says the muffler shop down the street from me.

How about turn downs underneath the car? How would those get tested for emissions?

Just get a P.O. box in Lucerne and register your car to that address. Then you dont have to worry about emissions at all...

what are ya thinking? I have built quite a few side exits for syclone's and have some pretty sweet drawings and design ideas for a DSM using oval pipe and having it exit right before the pass rear tire.

^^^ Hey, I like that idea! That way, you can still fit the catalyc converter, and a muffler(if you want to).

Almost all the cops in colorado are stupid here in colorado about exhaust. If the exhaust is modified in anyway they can ticket you. I know from experiance with my 3 modified exhaust tickets in the last year from my apexi 3". And hopefully emissions here wont ever come back otherwise I know of a few dsm'ers that are screwd. But side pipe exhaust would be cool if you wanna join the crowd and forget the police.

It shouldn't be a problem so long as you've got it muffled, cat on it if they test for emissions, and it exits behind the door.

Little update:

Its kinda strange the same type of thread on syty.net came up and if I can get my hands on a sy I am going to do a few exhausts. if and when I get to do them I will probably mock up something for the TSi. Dont know when this is going to happen due to having to rely on some elses truck for fitting.
