Yeah, from ppl saying "ouch, he's under-revving his engine" :lol:

I had a peco (lol) BB2 3" back box on mine, sounded nice but not too loud especially when you were going at speed.

On the other hand, my mate had two 5" rage back boxes on his SR.... at speed, that gave you a headache :?

mine was unbareable at 70mph

no radio or anything could drown it out, so it got taken off.

a man in the local high security multi story announced over the tannoy that if i didn't stop revving my car (i was only trying to park) he'd have me thrown out and banned from using it

Well mine (at the mo) is a nice not to loud but deep tone,but is loud under revs and you get looks of ppl when your not even going fast,infact i find it makes a deeper low sound the lower i keep the rev range,say 3rd or 4th at 25-30mph,you can set car alarms of with the deep tone... :lol:

Most novas i hear with any performance exhaust is loud.
Seems weird as my astra is very quite with any exhaust on, had a 4" rage box on and wasn't really loud. And yet a 1.2carb nova which is less bhp than my car just has a peco zaust on and just ticking over you can hear it, pulling away you can hear it from a few streets away.

So any ideas why mine is totally quiet and yet 60bhp compared to that novas 55bhp. :?

Try this for loud straight through ashley front pipe and a custom jp 4" exhaust and a proven 126db at the mot garage. Police made me bros mate have it took off or prove its road legal. Road legal by 2db :D

Theres no legal limit to exhausts. Its upto the officer to decide wether its making to much noise for the type of car it is.

ANDYRACER

No 128db is the legal limit. Copper cnt do nowt if its below that.

Reckon you should all be quiet, as without doubt my 2.0 16v is the loudest exhaust I have heard on any road car!

i doubt that that is the limit that would make your ears bleed, ive also been in trouble with the police for noise levels

the limit is 78-80db at 7meters perpendicular to the side of the vehicle with the engine at half its max rpm

besides why do you all want really really loud exhausts :? most overly loud exhausts i've heard sound raspy. I'd rather have the roar of twin 40s thank you :twisted:

raza
28-01-05, 01:56 PM
yea i agree the loud exaust sounds ok for like 5 mins but jus gets anooying after a while .. unless u turn the tunes up then u cant hear it but every fucker u go past hears it

Philsutton

my old exhaust aquired me a police reform warning.

I'm getting a new custom made on with the new engine. But it's going to be made quiet.
