I did some pre sound deadening decibel measurements. The only mods on this car is a Megan Racing Cat back exhaust. Warm idle, windows up, AC and radio off = 60-61 db. 4th gear 30mph (AF base speed limit) 81-82 db. 6th gear 70mph 88-89db. Part throttle shoots it up past 100 db. Ill get some readings after I install the Second Skin deadening. I noticed in a Motor Trend article that the ZR1, 458 italia, and the new Mclaren we way quieter then my Z. The highest reading at 70mph was 78 db. The lowest reading at idle was 52 db. I want a single din since its less distracting, and I want to get CFE to create something similar to this, just prettier ...
