MikeE Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 I'm booked onto the BookaTrack day at Goodwood this coming Monday and they have a noise limit of 98db. I've got a standard superlight 1600 but have no idea what sort of noise level it will produce. As far as I can see it's got the standard single exit pipe, catalyst and silencer. Anybody know the answer? Anyone know how I can make it (temporarily) a little quieter if I need to? cheers, Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F355GTS Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Mike It'll probably be abot 96db at 4,250 revs, least that what most of the 7's came out at a few weeks ago. When they ask oyu where the red line is tell them 6,000, hence the 4,250 check any more and you may have problems Also make sure the engine/ oil is hot And finally they will sell or rent you a supertrap to fit on the end of the exhaust if it's too loud Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Wong1697456877 Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 You should be ok with a standard 1600 SL although I'm by no means certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1400rs_0of30 Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Mike, you may or may not get under 98db without the supertrap, I reckon you'll def get under with it though. Without it my 1400rs is bang on 98db, and with the supertrap its between 91 and 93db Sean The original 1400 K Series Roadsport Prototype My Caterham Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino ferrana Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Your car is presumably a SS exhaust Sean? I would reckon you would be OK Mike but noise tests are very strange! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
