Not Ranked
When I first got the car together, I borrowed the decible meter from work... at five ft from the sidepipes I registered 72 decibles at idle (1000rpm) and 80 decibles at 4500rpm.
This is roughly equivalent to a new factory Harley. (Don't yell at me, it's on their website).
It's not just the sound level, but the frequency; when I have the car idling in the garage to warm-up, it usually sets most of the stuff in the kitchen off vibrating, even though the noise isn't that noticible inside the house.
Have occasionally setoff car alarms while driving by, which is pretty humorous.
