They cost $20 and you can even get cheaper ones on the App store for an iphone. People are buying $1500 catbacks, $20 is not a lot of money. Heck, people can walk into Radioshack, buy one for an hour, get the readings and return it. And sure it's not ideal, but it's at least somewhat objective. I'll give people more credit on this website...I think many folks go out of their way to help others with minimal benefit for themselves (maybe some rep points )

And since one person will never be able to do this unless they spend thousands traveling the country, some decibel readings may be the most objective measure we get. Otherwise we'll be rating our exhaust loudness by ear with a scale from 1-10...
