Side Pipes legal??

Couldn't find any info on the topic. My friend suggested side pipes on my cobalt, which I think would look sick as hell. I've heard they aren't legal in NJ, any feedback??

I was going to do this, but I heard they have to exit behind the passenger compartment, so that would mean they'd have to come out behind the rear wheels.

a Flowmaster Hushpower II will fit under the middle of the car and then you can split the output, but who knows how it will sound

I saw a Black SRT-4 the other day with side pipes. I don't know if hes gets **** about it or not. It also looked really bad. I don't suggest it.

Side pipes belong on cars that have +350 Cu/in

They will laugh at you...

We had a guy near me who did it to his sunfire and he was the brunt of many jokes..

The president of my car club has a single side-exit exhaust... he's got it coming out through the side skirt on the driver's side... I don't know if it's legal... and I'm pretty sure he's not running a muffler.... but it looks and sounds awesome...
