NSW defected for exhaust and filter ,I made a box out of stainless and got 2 weeks to get this defect cleared.

"It looks loud " so now apparently it's up to me to find out if its under 90db or return it to stock!!!

aT 4000 RPM ,PRETTY SURE THATS WHEN THEY MEASURE IT ,ITS NOT THAT LOUD AT 4000RPM .

Any ideas how loud 90 db is or where to get it measured in NSW without going to the epa ,i can get it measured there but then they will probably fine me if its over !

So any help would be appreciated or PM of where i can get bodgy blue slip in Sydney.

thanks fellas

Most exhaust shops will do it for you, Midas quoted $44..

$44 to measure the db or to do the defect clearing(blueslip)

Would i just take the read out to the rta to prove the car isn't defective ?

I will still need a blue slip to clear the air filter ,i've boxed it so it should be sweet!

Might do some research on getting it engineered to avoid defects :thumbsup:

$44 for an exhaust noise test, dunno if they'd accept it though. Assuming some of the exhaust workshops can do blue slips, I daresay it would be enough. Just give a couple of them a call to see what they say.

I doubt that a simple db test will be enough to clear the defect. As your exhaust is not standard anymore, it is deemed a modification and will need to be engineered. Your engineer will be able to do the certificate and the db test all in one. He can also engineer your pod too.
