chibikougan · 01-22-2014, 07:23 PM

I don't even have a list......

rx7 vinnie · 01-22-2014, 09:38 PM

I don't think the Cosmo FC will be road worthy by then so I'll just tow the racecar unload it and slay the dragon...... I'm anticipating a ticket for noise.

***TitaniumTT*** · 01-22-2014, 10:39 PM

I got one of those.... after I left Limerock which has noise restrictions.... that cop was such an asshole. Wasted a day of my life to go up to the inspection place for them to listen to it and say the same thing.... yeah, that cop was an asshole.....

chibikougan · 01-23-2014, 12:26 AM

Hmm I have never had a loud exhaust ticket. Even driving the FC n/a and the FB with just an exhaust Mani.

Even the 70 something Monte Carlo with the headers turned upsidown and made into stacks shooting fire. Black windshield roof burnt. Cop laughed his arse off at that one.

Bimmer had a straight pipe right out the middle and was very loud.

Wait had a warning for exhaust on my 88 b2200 that had a pace setter exhaust and was really quite....

Should have been like wait we can solve this here and done a waste gate to the face full throttle blow by!! Save some time anyway...

***TitaniumTT*** · 01-23-2014, 01:33 AM

I had the trailer in tow.... oh wait... that didn't stop me on the highway in the past

He was such an ass about it... I told him I just came from Limerock where they have actual sound metering equipment and I was fine. He told me I was too loud, Oh... so your department has the sound metering equipment. He says they do, but they never use it because it's too cumbersome to carry around in their cruisers.... Ok... so can I see the latest calibration reports for your ears YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!

So to stay on task here.... the RX8 to so list

Fix power steering
Fix the failed fuel level sender
Replace the torn MAF sensor O-ring
Build a place to neatly mount the 2-stroke oil pints
Remount the rear view camera
Wire up the sunroof to vent and auto-close
New shift knob and boot
New plug wires and plugs
Repair some ignition wiring
Refinish the rims
New front tires
Detail the interior and exterior
I think that's about it....

rx7 vinnie · 01-23-2014, 06:31 AM

Idk what it is about my car but at our local autocross I banged a 101.2 decibel in the straights. Idk why? I have 3 mufflers all in a single 3" exhaust.... Maybe should put a turn-down or a silencer on the end.

djmtsu · 01-23-2014, 06:56 AM

Turn down would make a HUGE difference. I know that is the only way Carter's FD would pass dB at some tracks.

Dolphin tail FTW!

rx7 vinnie · 01-23-2014, 07:49 AM

Yeah he also put a towel over it at nationals.

***TitaniumTT*** · 01-23-2014, 09:31 AM

Jeez man..... noise restrictions @ Limerock are 86/89 db.... I had no problem with a 4" split into 3" *2 and then only 2 Magnaflow cans..... what cans are you using?

rx7 vinnie · 01-23-2014, 10:13 AM

MagnaFlow after header then a small Borla round then an HKS tail muffler. It doesn't help I tach the car past 10k either. It sounds wicked though.

***TitaniumTT*** · 01-23-2014, 10:43 AM

I think the HKS is your problem.... I did an engine job on an FD and we didn't have the new exhaust system in house yet. So I started the car up without a catback or even the cat on it.... we all know what shit that sounds like.... the new "muffler" didn't change the tone at all and I swear it made it louder....

rx7 vinnie · 01-23-2014, 10:49 AM

So what do you recommend as a final exhaust muffler?... I'll try anything so I don't get any flack from the old geezers and so called bad asses that run our SCCA region.
