Extreamly gnarly and lame sounding, exept at idle when it sounds like a Ferrari

mine is that loud.

I have the catless V3 by helix and helix cat back I would say 100db-110db at full throttle. Sounds like a race car in tunnels.

130db's. Says who?


That's freakin rediculous and quite honestly I don't buy it. 105-110 is REDICULOUS loud and will place high in any sound off.

The legal limit for a concert/indoor if I remember correctly is 115dbs. 120 is so louder than hell. I can turn my stereo up to 130 and you can't hear ****. Your hair moves and your chest begins to really fill it. Your eyes flutter a bit...etc. I've NEVER seen a car do that. I'd be amazed at what you have on your car that does that...seriously. Maybe if you put your ear on the opening of the exhaust.

Honda+vtec+9krpm+straight thru titanium exhaust with no resonators and catless=very close to 130db.

ill find a soundclip of some other similar titanium exhausts that are in the mid 120db range

from how far out? that's crazy. I'd love to hear that.

I had a honda. non vtec. 8400 red line. strait thru exhaust. If I'd guess I'd say it hit 110 or so and that ****er was LOUD.

my wrx hits probably around 100 and it's pretty damn loud.
