Youre in NY right? Straight pipes will get you pulled over really quick.

This. Unless the car is incredibly fast, having such a loud exhaust is pointless.

When I had my car dyno'd, they had a red Nismo 350Z in there (looked really nice). One guy turned to me and said "I love your exhaust, its so quiet. That thing (points to 350Z) is so damn loud, and you make more power."

basically needs to be understated (and you can make any exhaust quiet, and not sacrifice performance, just gotta make sure you have the correct size piping and a good quality muffler, with a free flowing design)
