Hawaii has reintroduced legislation to prohibit the use, sale or installation of an exhaust system “that has been changed or modified from the factory design so as to increase the volume or audibility of the explosions within the vehicle’s motor.”

Legislation to prohibit the use, sale or installation of an exhaust system “that has been changed or modified from the factory design so as to increase the volume or audibility of the explosions within the vehicle’s motor” was reintroduced in Hawaii. The bill would also require that safety inspection stations perform a test to ensure that a vehicle conforms to the law. Fines for noncompliance would range from $100 to $500 for each offense.
