its down to the testers discretion, if they think it's too loud, they may fail, but most wont, unless you get a comlplete cunt doing it

It's down to your car's exhaust being no louder that 110db at idle standing 1 foot away with a microphone at exhaust level sitting at 45 degrees from the tail pipe.....

Im planning on getting a new sebring centre pipe next weekend without a silencer, cos i want more noise!
But if i do this will i still be able to hear my music ok, or will i have an annoying exhaust tone all the time. :)

I have no middle solencer either and feck me it's loud....

as rob said sounds raspy on full throttle...I am getting a middle silencer fitted.

sounds superb when idling and when you come off the throttle and it burbles away....

makes it raspy, top end is better, torque is better, but mid range you lose a bit
