Totally agree with you but unfortunately that's why they send you to the pits for testing, all they need is suspicion that the exhaust has an excessive noise level and they can give you a yellow.

Also if they all had to carry around the correct equipment it would mean they would have to actually do their job properly and conformed but we all know that will never happen!

It's not right but if you mod your car or have a car with mods then you should be prepared to cop some shit from the cops, even permits will sometimes be over looked and yellows issued.
