Did you hear it Corno ?

Hmmm - I think we need a category for factory exhausts too - I detect rather a lot of straight through pipes being hacked together this year ;^)

Sod loudest, you need another catagory for Best Sounding Big Bad Wedge, although I think I know who might win that one

[rev-erend]

Well the reigning champion is registering zero db .. so I guess you all have a chance

YES YES YES I have heard all about it, loud is good noisey is bad and if its at the expense of power then ... Care to put it on the rolling road ? we could do dB x BHP x Torques ! With say £10 on the side, come on put your Wedge where you Wedge is. Winnings to charity

Get them on the dyno no excuses.

Interestingly when mine was loudest at BBWF06, it was also the most power on the rolling road - which was the prize

Mine is a standard stainless silencer but with output going striaght out under rear axle and then on to original pipe in the rear bumper. Cetainly loud enough for me and very drivable on a long journey - not too sure what anyone following me feels like after 10 mins or so

I think my humungous air filter and BV head probably help the whole thing breath a little better than normal as well

[cirks]

still hoping I can pop up so......may not win but I may be close!

Separate sound test maybe for wedges with silencers !

Get underneath and have a looksy/tap the silencer with a spanner? you'll hear if it has no wadding in it.

Darren sounds a plan! But don't forget your car has things done to the engine.. Ours is completely standard!
