Legal Performance Exhaust Is There Such A Thing

[dog25t]

Probably a silly question but i'll ask it anyways..

Does anybody have a 3" system on there GTS~t that is at legal Db or at least close.

[Ben C34]

Yes

[Leroy Peterson]

In that case no not possible. end thread

So you literally started a thread 5 days ago asking exactly this and now you think you need another one

Here is a twist.

I was pulled over about 4 months and got done for window tint... long story short the officer was a great guy and let me know that my exhaust was a bit loud and could be defectable but he didn't bother with that. He said that they don't test for sound anymore they inspect to see if the stock silencing "units" were removed ie; the stock mufflers.

TL:DR?

Officer claimed if you remove stock silencing devices your system is illegal.

Anyone had a similar experience or is this a matter of getting 10 difference officers and getting 10 different answers.

Fyi, this was in QLD on Mt Mee.

Officers can defect you for whatever they like, it's up to you to prove your car is legal afterwards. Usually HWP carry decibel meters and light meters for tints (or so I've heard).

^^^^ that

As long as it's under 90db, doesn't hang below the legal height limit and has a functioning cat. then it's legal

Get a 4" straight pipe with a varex. Problem solved

[r32-25t]

From my experience on the forum is everyone is happy to help anyone but if you do or ask something silly/dumb/stupid, people are going to call you out on it

Are you for real? A bunch of people actually answered your question (that you posted twice) and this is the response they get? If these guys are smart asses then bring em on! We need more of them!

Probably a pain but could you get a stock factory exhaust from a Mercedes c63 or HSV clubsport something that has heaps of power and back pressure from the factory cut it up and use the mufflers, cat etc. and get a pretty silent exhaust? Was sitting next to a Amg c63 at the lights and it barely made a sound, and they really get moving. I would love a really silent exhaust.

[r32-25t]

No need to, a straight through 3in exhaust can be made legal with the correct mufflers in it

Need more doof!!!

The Merc driver also has a few other things going for him:

• Its quiet inside
• He doesn't have ICE, he has a surround sound hi fidelity integrated entertainment system
• He can't here the motor
• He can't hear road noise
• There is no vibration
• He has no squeaks or rattles
• And did I mention....its quiet inside

If you get a quiet exhaust system, you will still have all the above..........but now you will be able to hear it!!!
