Hi guys, I Have been issued with a testing notice for my 996.2 From the EPA.
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 guys, I Have been issued with a testing notice for my 996.2 From the EPA. Has anyone ever been through the process before?
I have been looking everywhere for the stock decibel reading for a 911 996.2 and can't find anything anywhere, please help.
I Live in Melbourne Australia. From what I can tell it's all original but if it fails and I can't rectify by a certain time my car will become deregistered. They will not release any info to me about who the police officer is or any evidence it's absolutely crazy!!
I would recommend you go to a Porsche dealership and have them do a visual inspection of your cars exhaust . Tell the dealership you need written documentation that the car meets all exhaust specs for your model year . Then present that info to law enforcement . It may cost some $$$ for the inspection but it's better than losing the registration .
I have to ask , do you have Harley Davidson or similar where you live ? I find it hard to believe your car is louder than a Harley . Good luck and let us know the results .
I would also do a google search online specific to your country laws and such. It could be that even a stock Porsche could exceed some decibel meter threshold at 7,000 RPM under certain conditions. But like in the post above, have a Porsche certified expert provide the proof.
Wow! Please don't share the link. Some group in CA will pick it up. CARB already has way too much power: but we do have clean air!! (when there isn't a fire)
How do they notify you that you need to get checked? It looks like they can cite you out on the street. Is it part of registration?
The officer was a proper **** deregistering his car on the spot, and not giving him a fix-it ticket. He created an unnecessary financial and personal burden for the owner, who will have to go to court to figure this out while his car is not legally driveable.
Hyundai in "track mode", the cop is requiring him to have the track mode physically removed, says he's going to lose the car for a long time and it's going to cost him $7k. It's worth watching the first part of this video (from Tom's article). Absolutely ridiculous. That cop is in full "Barney Fife when he gets a bullet" mode
-- he is enjoying every minute of his power trip. What kind of idiot wouldn't give him a warning?? The driver didn't know, which I believe, this is the first time I've heard of anything like this (especially for a stock car).
