Title: Anyone been to WGT Today (19/1)
Post by: Grizzly on January 19, 2009, 06:06:04 PM
Out of interest has anyone been over to WGT today? I am am after an opinion of how loud the Black UK single Turbo is that was Rollered.

I am told it was 115db at 4k :), is that loud?? I know its been decatted but i also think the Packing may have gone AWOL.

Basically i was wondering if it is Drivable or is it going to be a 5.0. magnet??

Cheers
Chris

Heard it on the drive on Idle very low revs, Yeh it was loud but it must really kick off when it gets over 3k.

Do you think a Mid pipe will bring the DB\'s down? Also i\'m guessing the Cat back may be getting repacked in the near future as its a full stainless Apexi and even though they are loud, surly it shouldn\'t be that loud??

May not be as bad as you think. When the N vs S dyno day at Thor was run we got up to 136dbl inside the workshop. May not be track day friendly but not overly loud.

Matt, how much is pips backbox for the FD ??
