Leading evidence: 'its a no no' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'its a no no' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace cats in the future' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Suggestion · Original poster
Its a switchable bypass solution so should help with trackdays particularly if I end up changing the cats in the future.

The standard system in decent condition is borderline on static test for most circuits in the UK.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi - a quick reference question.
Anyone know what noise level a standard 996 GT3 exhaust is meant to have?
I appreciate that this can increase with cats/exhaust on the way out, etc, but just looking for what the noise level should be on a factory set up.
Thanks.
Thanks all.
I am looking at some exhaust options and the supplier is suggesting +3dB and +5dB solutions....was trying to see how close these get to the magic 105dB number for the better tracks.
...sounds like +3dB is the safer bet
The standard system in decent condition is borderline on static test for most circuits in the UK.
On drive-by they are generally fine, even at Bedford which is the most strict. But any kind of modification tends to tip them over.
If you can, keep it stock. That's my advice if you want to track in the UK. And it's only going to get worse.
Have a chat with Kline Inovation they built me a custom quite exhaust for the 997 they also do 996 versions.
Top Gear Bridport Steve Kilcoyne (MD) 01308 427588 was the agent I used. He is the step father of Christian one of the main guys at Kline.
Very happy with my system comes in at about 102-104 on static tests last year.

Err I'd run from TG at Bridport. They've allegedly been passing off fake Kline exhausts which they've had manufactured on the cheap in Taiwan according to Felix Kline...

OP try M&M and see if they can get you this exhaust if its below 105 dbs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwnprteAnjg,
Intoxicating but I suspect its a no no. I've heard the Akaprovic which also sounds brill just like this vid in fact.
Thanks all for the advice and recommendations.
I've decided to work with Ken @ 9e with one of his developments. Its a switchable bypass solution so should help with trackdays particularly if I end up changing the cats in the future. They know the car well as they look after it anyway.
Will post up how it turns out.

Ha - That sounds like a spitfire!...I won't be able to get it out of the garage let alone on a track day!

After reading that id have to agree. Looks like that relationship has gone south.
