That's interesting and seems damn near impossible that my car with the stock exhaust is 7.3 times louder than a modded vette.... I'm going to have to take it to court. The ref DID say that bringing the rpms UP I was at about 97db, and it only spiked on the decel. Damn popping.
He tested me at 4050rpms as well. To be CRUISING at 4050 rpms that is about 2/3 of my power band. I redline at 6200 rpms. Its ridiculous for me to cruise at that rpm. Its only about 40mph in second and already in third it puts me at about 60-75 ish, in 4th it'll put me at over 120mph and 5th it'll put me probably well over 150!!!!??? I can't even imagine bein at 4050 in 5th... Its just not a prudent test imo. Should be tested at cruising... Closer to 3050 rpms, most of the time I cruise around 2500 on the fwy in 5th.
Thanks for the tip BADDASSC6
