Exhaust noise

[samuelellis]

contact ade at phattbeats car audio in barnsley www.phattbeats.co.uk (i think) and ask him if he can do it, I know that at his open days he runs exaust spl competitions using an audiocontrol

the only other people i know with spl meters are termlab units that need to be hooked into a PC and are a pressure sensor not a microphone

Much appreciated fella, pints in the post

HI there

Yeah I have one.

When are you wanting to use it? Just let me know.

If you're going to be at the Yorkshire Pistonheads meeting with a sound meter, I'd be interested in bring my Tuscan down too?

I'll stick mine in the boot on the yorks run

[Greensleeves]

Scrote runs 98dBa at 0.5m at 4500 rpm which is the standard sound test these days (for rallying)

I dread to think how loud it is on full chat and even then, it's not as loud as the gearbox!

Only 98? I thought it would be a tad louder

A lot of tracks are on the 105 limit mate, a couple are down at 98 (which is silly!)

my main concern is the ring which is 95!
