How Loud is you Evo in Dd
I was wondering how loud is 103 db? That is the limit at the local track.
Would a evo 9 with full TBE and test pipes be over this limit? I want to check before signing up for anything.
Thanks

Although most track say thats there limit, I'm sure they dont follow it completely... JUST an FYI... I think the only reason they put that up is because they have to for licenses i believe... I could be completely wrong though.
Alot of the track's I've been to have had EXTREMELY loud cars which deff surpass 103DB limit and don't get kicked out

Measured and weighted, how? That's key. 103dB can range from loud to excruciating, depending. No question your car with a TBE and a TP pulls more than 103dB at WOT measured within a few feet of the pipe, regardless of weighting. It's doubtful they measure like this, so find out exactly what's involved.

Maybe I should go for it anyways then. It says on their website if your car exceeds 103db, you will have a chance to fix it. If you continue to go over 103db, then you will have to trail your car away.
That will really suck if they kick me out after 1 or 2 sessions.

it depends on how you measure A LOT.
we had a loudness limit in our country, for ticketing purpose, and it faced huge legal challenges. noone outlined how should it be measured, so it was cancelled eventually.
measuring dB on WOT, cruise and idle gonna give you 3 totally different measurements. where do you put microphone, in cabin or within XX inches of your exhaust tip? straight from beyond the tip or at car's side? in some kind of premise or on the outside? it depends on even the humidity and air temperature. it's virtually impossible to measure it giving you repetitive readings on two different days for a single car.

Depends a lot on where the track is too. If it's an actual track where it's somewhat secluded I doubt you'll have any issues. If you're doing an AutoX in a school parking lot or something with nearby residential areas, you'd have a better chance of them enforcing it.
