Decibel level of open headers?
I just called a few tracks and the car has to be around or under 105 decibels, and I was wondering what the level would be on openheaders on a stock GT, just estimating.

Mines over 95 through full exhaust and mufflers. Mines 2.5" all the way back w/o cats and 2 chamber flows.

Some road race tracks are nesslted in between residential areas, and have decibel limits. Theres one about an hour away from me that limits you to 100dB.

Don't know the actual measurement, but it will be right between "too loud" and 'deafening"......... lol!
