Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion

Yeh, but the OEM sports exhaust cuts out between 31-44 mph which is the specified test zone for the noise regs.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

postamble(); First of all an apology to those that went to the curry night on Sunday. I wasn't there (serious domestic problem that day, don't ask)....seeing the pictures it looked like you all had a great time. Come hell or highwater I will come to the next one!! I don't know if anybody else has seen this on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Porsche-911-996-Sport-Sound-Muffler-Exhaust_W0QQitemZ8015533456QQcategoryZ38786QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Looks good value for money compared to the real thing (ok, I know you don't get the switchable thing, but for about £1,500 less than the genuine article, I could live with that). Anybody got one? What do people think? It looks worthy of consideration, if nothing else... Marc Migration info. Legacy thread was 38691

POST 2Original post

Blimey ... sounds too good to be true. Perhaps you should act as guinea pig & get one fitted! Careful of the noise though as it'll bar you from many track days it it really goes above 105db... Migration info. Legacy thread was 38693

POST 3Original post

I would also be very interested in the awnser of does it work. Daz. C4S Migration info. Legacy thread was 38696

POST 4Original post

Don't your years start bleeding at 105db! Migration info. Legacy thread was 38697

POST 5Original post

yes your years do bleed which is why its handy not to be middle-aged Migration info. Legacy thread was 38703

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

postamble(); does anybody know what the db output is on a OE Porsche sports exhaust? Migration info. Legacy thread was 38744

POST 7Original post

Good question! I looked very hard to try and find this out, with no luck i'm afraid. The only pointer I could find is that apparently it fails the Bedford Noise test, and thats 101 db. Migration info. Legacy thread was 38750

POST 8Original post

The max db for a new car is 75 according to EU regs, I think. This does not apply to MOTs. Migration info. Legacy thread was 38753

POST 9Original post

Yeh, but the OEM sports exhaust cuts out between 31-44 mph which is the specified test zone for the noise regs. Its very annoying! You can overcome this by cutting out a diode, smth i am very tempted to do, but have not got round to yet. Migration info. Legacy thread was 38756
