What exhausts pass track noise tests without a cat? Turbo

Post by afennell »

I would like to know what exhausts (with a decat only) that have passed the following sound tests at track days.

98db@3/4revs 0.5m from the exhaust pipe measured from a 45 deg angle

I know this question comes up from time to time so thought a list would be a good idea.
I’m only interested in tested exhaust.

Pass without cat

1. Mongoose
2. Hayward and Scott (anyone know how these sound, i think they look allot like the goose)

Way too loud!!
1. Apexi Hayabusa
2. 5Zigen
3. Blitz Nur Spec

A few exhausts that would be helpful to know.

Normal Departure or the Pro Departure? Im guessing the Normal will be quiter due to the smaller diameter pipe work?

Just added the RSR, havent had it tested but I'd say its just as loud as a NUR spec possibly even louder.

Any ideas to a Magnex decatted on an NA?

Traditionally Magnex was always a little freer breathing than a Mongoose, mine certainly sounds very loud when you hit 5k revs, but does it break the legal limit?

I'd be interested to know before being turned away from events.
