Legal my arse..

I have that exhaust with Scottys dump and 100 cell cat there is no way it is that loud. You can hardly hear it until i am well and truly up it.

Have you conducted your test in accordance with the RMS specs, and ensured that there are no hard surfaces within 20 metres to reflect any sound?

There is no way the Legalis is 114db.

I have never heard a Fujitsubo get that loud.

I ran one on my previous M35 with an intake & dump pipe from Scott as well as a Kakimoto de-cat front pipe.

No chance in hell it hit 114db

My current VQ35 under full throttle with only the headers attached, sure.

I did the test at 5000 rpm, and the device was 1m away sitting on the driveway.

Exhaust was facing the street to so no reflecting surfaces.

I get 75 db inside the cabin.

With the windows down I get 85 db

Device is calibrated and gets normal conversation at 65 db so it's pretty good.

One thing... my cat is a single cell , if you get my drift

I'll get a 100 cell bullet cat, that should quiet it down a bit.

Also don't like the explosions of unburnt fuel on freeway driving.

This is what I have now.

Thats a big suprise as i was suprised how quiet my Kakimoto Hypermega N1 is. Ill try and get cabin / exterior sound clip when i can. I also have the 62mm kakimoto silencer that can quiet it even more with no restrictions due to same internal diameter

Yeah but it will be loud and drony if made.

"if made badly or ignorantly"

I am getting a new exhaust made in the next few weeks. I'll try and post up how it sounds when done. I guess i could have just gotten a new dump / flex and joined the Fujitsubo crew but i like tackling things my own way with what i have at my disposal locally. Support the locals folks :)

If the bloke i am using's other work is an indication of what i'm in store for it should be a nice bit of kit.

    • Meh, At 60 years old, I have been doing dumb stuff for much longer than you mate, I am the true King And unfortunately I cannot be a maroon, as I am not brownish red As for not getting ITB's, the plenum intake will apparently show typical gains across the board and increase induction noise a bit, but, have all over less dort than ITB's Cost difference for the extra ITB dorts was significant though, the total parts for the plenum set up is "around" $2kAUD plus shipping, the ITB's were $4kAUD plus shipping, I was contemplating really hard about paying the extra $2k for all of the dorts, but weirdly, some form of common sense, from listening to the platform experts prevailed  As for the NA mod hate by some, I've had a few boosted cars, with all their inherent issues, I'm now looking at simplicity and legalities for a street car, maybe I'm just getting old, and I'm quite happy to spend some of the kids inheritance, 5kw at a time 馃ぃ And think of all the money I'll be saving on consumables that something with boost needs, like engines, gearboxes, diffs, clutches,  tilt trays... etc. etc. etc. 馃お
    • Haha.  I wouldn't say I am either but I've definitely been around it plenty.  I'm guessing you know the dial in is basically to make a handicap to level the playing field between racers.  The car with the slower dial in goes first and in theory if they run their dial in time and the faster car also does then they cross the finish time if they also have exactly the same reaction time - if you go faster than the dial in them you lose, but if you are too slow there's a good chance the other person will get to the finish line first. I'm normally supporting other cars but they were all pretty dialled and were egging me on to race as well, here's one of the cars I tune (Starlet) which ran within like 1 hundredth of its dial in through the competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inEBu-d9Gn4&t=69s
    • Where ever the fuel reg gets it reference is what I use to T into for map reference been a very long time so where it goes to plenum/runners I have no idea but never had issues. 
    • What ecu? Same shop every time? Same ambient temperature? If timing is correct then pull plugs and see if lean or rich. Dyno can also read different if they have changed ramp rate or not set tacho/speed properly  
    • I've never done dial in's just straight up, whatever that's called. I'm far from a drag (racing ) expert.
