Hi All
anyone know what the Std 991 GT3 measures for noise ?
Static is best, as it should be a consistent measurement.
Trying to squeeze in a track day but no idea if the car will pass !
TIA

I went to Goodwood with my 991 GT3 RS and there were a couple of 991 GT3s there as well. All passed the 105 db static test. I got a warning and was eventually blackflagged when the drive by test registered 101 db. At that point i had not pressed the sport exhaust button (obviously) but did use PDK in Sport. I then switched PDK back to normal and then it was alright (just). I did not use the paddle mode as that would probably have triggered the noise level even earlier. The two GT3s both had warnings but did not surpass the limit.

Hope this helps.
