My wheeliebin ( empty ) produces 89Db at a constant 3mph which, is running a straight through system and also comes within the current MSA regulations, will try it at speed next time........... :lol:

Surely that green one wouldn't be allowed to count, it's not even got glass or lights in it

I won a loudest exhaust once... because for some reason, they measured it at the door mirror, pointed towards the engine... well... Webber 40 which were unfiltered at the time, megajolt, removable bonnet and the rev-limiter saw to that and I got a sh*tty plastic cup!

 

Otherwise I've had the exhaust tested, in the correct manner and it was around 90db on a calibrated tester... but some how Castle Combe seemed to have it at 100db, just shy of their track limit... that is unless you go buy one of their silencer cans
