If they haven't met their quota of pulling people over, or if the neighborhood folk are sensitive to loud exhaust, and complain about it a lot you will probably get pulled over for it.

If you want really loud, but still want awesome sound leave the cats, but gut them. It makes one heck of a rumble. My buddy did it to his 98 1/2 ton 4.6(he had a single 18 inch glasspack that went out to duals), and it sounded better than just about anything on the road, such a mellow unique sound, and around here there are a lot of vehicles you can hear from a mile away, but when you heard his truck you knew it was him, and I can't say that about any other vehicle around. I would kind of like to hear what it would sound like with gutted cats and a muffler(Flowmaster/ Magnaflow) instead of a glasspack, but it's probably not as good.
