The confirmed list is the first page of this thread.

Having 2 threads was too confusing for some people.

But to have everything together. :D

Yes correct.

You will not pass scruitineering with a screamer or side pipes

What if your screamer pipe has a muffler on it?? It is the same setup I had Wakefield...and i dont think anybody noticed it...I have also had it on a dyno and you can hear it but only very slightly...Guilt-toy can verify this...

Paul,

Unfortuantly one of the residents has sound testing equipment and watches us while we are out there.

As soon as it goes 1db over the allowed limit he called EPA.

Yep understand...You'd better take me off the list then...haven't paid yet anyway...My car is not that loud, and I am sure there are many cars louder with plumbed back wgs, but I dont want to risk causing a drama..

Just curious how far the guy is away when he is measuring the sound level...if he is more than say 100m away, wind speed and direction can influence what he measures by +/- 1 or 2dB anyway...Btw a carton of Crownies has often been know to reduce how far noise carries too...

Probably not in this case. It's a long term - not just about us. If the screamer is muffled then it's not a screamer, it's a separate wastegate pipe. I'll leave the judgement of it up to you as only you really know how loud it is. Basically illegally loud cars can't come. I think 2-3 dB might pass ok but not 5-10.

I might be wrong but I think one of the reasons this particular person keeps on reporting people to the epa is that their family had a road death some time back. Not sure if this is true, just what I heard.

I take it this is open to other car clubs now?

P.S Enter and pay up people Texi is Hella Fun :D:)

how about we give him free tickets to i dunno,,,, the movies or something without him knowing it was us, someone puts it in his letter box a week ahead and make the tickets only available for use on the 14th of sept.....

also is there something we can do for the day to get race preped cars on the track????? when i have a party at my place the music gets to heaps loud,,,, my cars sound sytem has been measured at over 100db from 5 meters away and stuff like that.... all i do is call the cops up first and tell them im doing this on such a day and they'll say something like "its allowed aslong as its between 7am and 9pm, or till 12am depends if its a weekday or a weekend" why cant we do this for sutton? or do you think they will wait out the front and defect everyone if we let them know????

my car should be fine with noise, just got 3.5 cat back and pod filter and should have some dump/front pipes by time texi comes, but its ashamed that some people are having to miss out.

That is a big camera, is it even legal? Pretty sure i saw i guy on CNN shoot a small plane down with one of those

If it was a 600 or 800mm prime then it would be illegal. :D

We often call them 'Voyeur lenses' :D

    • I know it's an entirely different engine, but I noticed practically 0 difference removing or adding 2x 3in (5inch body) 400cell cats (one in each bank) with regards to sound. So changing the cat to change drone I suspect will have very very, very, very, very, very very minimal impact.
    • 200 cell cat will probably help. Do you have room to tee off a Helmholtz resonator anywhere along the exhaust? These can do wonders for drones, with a little experimentation with regards to length.
    • The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing
    • Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
