Reno's mate, front half of the house is nearly done (floorboards, paint, new ensuite) then we have to do the back half of the house (brand new laundry, bathroom, floorboards, paint) then brand new kitchen..... :aigo:
Still lots to do, the car is currently an immovable shelf for storage currently
Will still need some extra hands when the time comes!
Going to try and finish off the rest of my zorst this weekend. Hopefully it will be quite! lol I'm thinking it will still be kinda loud Might have to get a big glass packed muf on there...
Might have to get a big glass packed muf on there...Yeah I know but i wanted something a bit different I'm hoping that two aero's will cut out alot of the noise... one way to find out,
What are your thoughts on turb down tips? Me and Casey are having a running debt about whether or not it will increase or decrease noise! lol

Ahhh got ya!
Perceived sound levels will be lower as well as tested levels as you're bouncing the sound off the ground and up before the microphone on the test gear.

Guess it all depends where you're standing whem you hear it
(never mind that they're FUGLY)
Tests are done xx meters behind and xx to the side on the diagonal.
If you're walking along and a car comes towards you you can't hear it till it passes (doppler effect) and it's loudest when you're in line with the tailpipe facing you.
One thing you need to remember our tests are done at around 4500, no matter what you do a 7M at full noise is going to freak out the EPA test gear.
(I gor nailed in my old HQ with a 253 in it due to the above scenario, took it to be tested it passed easily)

hey hey! I like the look of the Dumpy tail! Looks alot better then the (fart) Cannon!
Like I said Casey, I'll slip the tip in and run it, see how it sounds, if you right I'll ditch it. I think it will be quitter tho as it doesn't point out, if you know what I mean.
BTW aren't the test done at, 50% redline? IIRC for the 1J thats 3750 which is what my last test was at.
True on the zorst noise. Most turbo cars with a big bore exhausts are loud, just seams to come with the territory...
