So I’ve been wondering about this same issue a LOT recently. I live in Newport and drive an m4 with a valved exhaust. My midpipes are non resonated so valves open it’s super loud and I actually had a very close call a few weeks ago on a pch cruise where a sheriff definitely pulled over the wrong guy. Anyways that part I don’t understand is that the MPE is a bmw part and it can be legally sold in CA. Usually anything that is illegal can’t be sold here and the even more sketch part is that bmw sells it and huge corps are usually very strict w state laws. However, the part that confuses me even more is that literally ALL new bmws come with valved exhausts… x3s, all Ms, even Porsches, lambos, etc. what CA really needs to do is truly define the exhaust law and not make up all this bs just to ticket ppl
