Default Exhaust Noise Level

Does anyone have a DB rating on how louda car's exhaust is? I'm not sure if there is a breakdown or what not.

I found out this weekend my car with the S/C and Mid-pipe and CAt-back only is 111 DB. I'm not sure how loud that is. The only cars louder than mine were the ones with either dumps or open headers. Just curious.

I found this and posted it in the "Exhaust Article" thread.

Here is another article listing decibel levels. Most street legal aftermarket mufflers are pretty close in sound levels. http://www.andersonfordmotorsport.co.../exhshoot1.htm

I don't have any cats.

I'm running a roush axle-back with a Mac O/R Prochamber.

Thanks for the links. This gives me a better idea on the exhaust levels and what not.
