foff667 will remember this one. my 1991 Camaro RS, LO3, headers, !cat, and borla with the open plate. i picked up the same sound pressure meter that the NHRA uses to enforce their db limit only to find out that doing the test completely wrong i couldn't get my car over the limit. holding the meter about 6 inches from the tail pipe and rev'ing to to 5k barely hit 80db.

kasey, i will find the law and get you a copy. it is a fun weapon to have when power trip nitwits try to bust you. i can't tell you the number fo times i got uled over for noise. best part is, i didn't ever get asked a single time about the slicks adn skinnies i drove around on for 2 years. lol
Send to me as well please. If I can get the SLP docs and that I'll take it back and say "Ha, you suck, pass me now."
