Im booked to go on a trackday at OultonPark on tuesday. On reading the details of the day i noticed the noise testing and noise level of 105db.
Can anyone give me a rough example of how loud that is? As i think mine might be louder. Ive got a Sportex racetube and a Magnex backbox.
Might have to find a standard backbox.
Cheers guys.

Have you still got a cat?
My 1.2 has got a custom cat-back system with no centre box and a fairly small back box. That's 91db.
Is the 105db at Oulton not driveby?
I thought it was a static 100db and 105db driveby?

I'm wrong, just read on there, static 105db. They monitor driveby figures but it'll only be a problem if those figures are particularly higher than cars that had a similar static figure. I imagine that's just in case of people using temporary measures to get through the static test.
It's all in here Noise Regs

How can you think yours might be louder when you dont know how loud it is in the 1st place?

for reference....
Our skyline passes a static test at 97dB and the Impreza 98dB
Both have quiet exhausts, but you'll be ok if you have an exhaust with a centre box and back box. A straight through drainpipe would give issues.

bend the truth about your redline too. Its measured at a certain angle, certain distance and at 3/4 of red line. Say your car revs to 6000rpm.
I never tell them our cars go to over 8000rpm Always 7000rpm
