we dont have a noise limmit, it's down to the inspector who is testing the car. i.e. if he say it's a bit loud then you have to change it. but the law says you have to have 1 box in the system (no mention of size tho)

bikes have a db level they must be under and so do all race tracks(96db normally).

There's laws for that, but enforcement varies with different states. Here in Tennessee, there's too many redneck trucks running around with straight pipes and no mufflers for them to worry about trying to bust them all.

We are limited to 95dbs and have to have a cat, its a 10 grand fine for not having one

As soon as I'm completely done with the install and tuning. I want to able to post a full layout of all fuel and ignition tuning maps, and I'm still working on those. It's rained all weekend, so I've been working on the seats, gauges, and cleaning up and looming the wiring. I also am waiting on a fuel pressure regulator to get here, so I can hook up a fp gauge, too.

BTW I was expecting a rough idle with the 750cc injectors, but I've got the idle tuned now, and it's like factory! I was amazed! If it passes emissions, then I'm really going to be happy with this system.
