Well Sh!)()@&#$t... Epa Test 102db

[MyStag260]

Hey guys, 

Just thought id vent a little and see if anyone can help me... so i got pulled over and to be honest i was lucky the copper was pretty freindly not a total arse, he ran the wheel under the middle of the car (thank god not the front) which was fine, but noted the exhaust was a bit loud. He didn't pop the bonnet which was damn lucky... but yeah got the EPA letter just got it tested and 102db... and thats with the silencer in set to closed. 

So i really need to find a standard exhaust ASAP...

any help would be appreciated

Best thing to do, Ryan, is get a high-flow muffler added and make sure the exhaust shop/workshop tests it for a legal dB output reading.

At least that way you know you're not strangling the car with a too-small exhaust just so you can get it past the EPA.

Really? When I bought mine, it had one hot-dog resonator about 18" long and just the rear cannon on it. I never got it measured for noise, but it was headache-inducing on any long-ish trips, and never had any troubles with driving right next to police.

When I got the PFC, dump/front pipe and hi-flow cat installed, I also got them to add another muffler, the've removed the resonator completely.

Hey buddy can you let me know how you go with removing the centre muffler?

Any more performance and is it still reasonably quite?

I am going through the same thing with mine, it makes decent power at the moment but i was considering removing the centre muffler for a bit more noise because the exhaust now is so quiet that i cant without flooring her!

[MyStag260]

WOW!!!

WHAT A BUNCH OF LEGENDS RIGHT HERE!!!

Thanks heaps guys for all the offers, i am going to borrow ryno's cause i know where he lives and hopefully it will make the care real real quite... i spoke to Ben at racepace and he recons that even the standard exhausts on some GTRs don't pass... 90db is really really really quite its like stupidly quite. I haven't had a problem with cops up until now, its an age old story... your not in trouble until u get caught.

Anyway i need a good exhaust place to do the work for me, like i have a 3.5 inch system and i just want to quite it right down, all it needs is a highflow muffler in the middle and a big highflow oval muffler at the rear with some 3" twin tips... I have been quoted a full exhaust through racepace at 3.3k and i really don't wanna pay that... Anyone have any suggestions?

Cheers oh and thanks again all especially Ryan ill cya tonight champ

rowville exhaust centre did my exhaust... sounds no where near as good as yours but is a SHITLOAD quieter

[RBPOWA-(TJ)]

i got mine done at re customs .... $1400 with twin muffler and twin 3inch tips

just got a muffler removed and still very very quiet ...

xforce rear muffler #MPO1 ... VERY GOOD !
