Hey guys, was considering stage 1, and since Cops are now checking our exhaust in quebec(they need to be under a 100 decibels) I was thinking about a 2in1 set up who would be quieter than my current set up with 50\50 pipes, Is there a way to put a thunderheader or a fatcat under a 100decibels or should I start looking out in a supertrapp with the disc who can be added to reduce the sounds ?
start looking at the supertrapp, i have the thunderheader and its louder than 100 decibels. the d&d is over that with the quiet core u might want to call them for other options on baffles. but the supertrapp is quiet the ones i have heard. i think its around 98 decibels.
How far away are they when they check it? Check it from side or rear? What rpm do they check. I can check my Supertrapp for you. I have the billet open end cap so it will be a little louder.
here it goes: Distance between your exhaust pipe and the sonometer -> 24inch in an angle of 45 degree,at 2500 you got to be under a 100db and at idle you need to be under 90db
If anyone with a D&D fat cat and is able to test it I would greatly appreciate it
I have a Fat Cat with the big boar baffle. I just downloaded a sound level meter for my iphone yesterday but haven't had time to check it yet...next time I fire it up to ride later in the week I will check it, but I guarantee it is WAY above those limits. I bet it's over 100 just at idle....at 2,500 it wouldn't surprise me if it were close to 120 at that distance.
