TOO NOISY?

Post by richGTS »

Hi, I have a rev 2 Turbo with a blitz nur spec r exhaust fitted, does anyone know if this is too loud for Castle Combe? (98dB), I'm hoping it will be OK. I have the baffle that slides into the 'silencer' which does make it quieter but ideally dont want to have to fit it in the track.[/b]

If you think your exhaust is loud it will likely fail the noise test at combe. If you are reasonably near, give them a ring and pop down and they will check it for you.

needs to be 98db or lower at 3/4 revs 0.5m @45deg angle from exhaust. you may be able to hire a noise meter from your local hire shop.
