Actually, I meant the noise of the exhaust. I know the EJ22s are legal.

Does sound awesome.
Mine seems half that noise & I only just passed the sound test. Was allowed 96db & I got 93.3db.
Is it different in QLD Brad?

The difference between 93.3 and 96 is actually quite significant. Db is measured on an exponential scale.Jak Rizzo wrote:Mine seems half that noise & I only just passed the sound test. Was allowed 96db & I got 93.3db.

In simple terms (the rule of 6)
+6dB = double the original value = 200%
- 6dB = half the original value = 50 % etc.
So 96 Db would be about 1.4 times as loud and 93.3Db(roughly). So Jak you car would only be 70% of the volume of a 96db Car (again roughly)
That's my intelligent post for the day 😀

Thats really interesting Mike, but we made mine hit 96db by rasing the rev limit, & I can tell u now, it was nothing like that buggy.
At the end of the day, it sounds great!

this is off-track somewhat so I won't go into it, but 6dB is a doubling of the sound pressure level.
However doubling the sound power level is only an increase of 3dB.
But what matters is apparent loadness to a human, and I think that double the volume to the ear is more like a 10dB increase.
That's why even though a 200W speaker has twice the power of a 100W speaker, and therefore is a 3dB increase (double the power), it does not sound twice as loud to the ear.
