    I just brought a sound meter into stock at my branch. I doubt I will ever sell it, but I never planned on selling it. I measured my exhaust at idle right at 100db, and at full throttle 121.8db. I just thought that was interesting. Just FYI, I am running a catless Tsudo DP, with a Magnaflow Catback.

    Eh, Prodrive oval tip probably = about 90 or something low.

    I'd still like to see though.

    RamblinWRX has that one, I think.

    It's fucking sick. He claims the exhaust is actually louder across the range than just an open catless downpipe. :eek3: I believe it.
