HFC's and exhaust noise levels

Diocletian · 03-24-2010, 11:26 AM

I didn't see this being discussed so I feel I should bring it up. Simply put, I don't like my car being too loud. Don't get me wrong, I love the sound of this engine but I can only take so much. This car is my office 5 days out of the week and my only car. So obviously it being too loud would ruin the appeal for me.

Everyone has different tolerance levels when it comes to noise. So, the best option here would be to get a series of dB readings on stock(for a baseline) and modded exhaust. For example: I would like to know what the increase would be for a HFC+FI TDX+Intake system. Different variations using different products would also be good. Maybe a database could be created for us anal retentive people out there.

Just thought I would give this a shot as noise is a deal breaker for me when it comes to mods.
