I downloaded a decibel meter app for my phone (not extremely accurate, but...) the other day to see how loud the "free" exhaust mod was. The only problem was, I didn't do a baseline for the stock exhaust before I did the mod.
Anyways, I was thinking this would be a good thread for people to post the decibel level of their particular exhaust mods so that everyone could compare. What I can do is, when you post up the dB's for your exhaust, I will edit my post to include it to the list so its consolidated all in one for ease of viewing. I figured this list will help out those who wish to mod but don't know how loud they want to go. So, if you have an Iphone/Droid/whatever, you can download a free decibel meter app and get a reading of your exhaust. It would probably also help if we get three or four different readings for the same type of exhaust mod and then get an 'average' from that. Thanks all.
**When taking the reading, I pointed the mic towards the outlet at approximately 12-15 inches, until I had a consistent reading.
