I thought it was just us kit car types with short systems that struggled with Donny's 98 drive by. It shouldn't be difficult to get it within the noise limit?

The standard 98db 'drive-by' limit operates throughout the day. This is not comparable to the 92db drive by limits at other venues. Cars close to the typical 105db static limit will likely fail and not be able to continue My car typically blows 101db on static tests, although last time out it was 97db, so if you can get your static around those levels you should be OK?

No it was a noisy day, don’t think it’s exhaust side now as that’s pretty quiet now I’ve repacked it. But the throttle bodies nearly burst my ear drums Yesterday having it mapped. I have brought a piper cross induction kit, if I can get that to fit it may do the trick👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t get me wrong I love the sound, but I just need to quite them down for track days. Planning in swapping between filter & induction kit for track days, My car pinged the meter at Mallory at 106db. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
