It's not an autoX restriction as much as it may be a site restriction.

Cannysage - what exhaust do you have. Most of the aftermarket exhausts try to stay below 90db to prevent street-legal problems.

I have HKS hi-power.. think it's 95.. also my testpipes. yeah... I guess the area around that place is cautious about noise, cuz of the residents. Since the mic will be place somewhere on the track, it might be ok...

You should be fine. 93.5 decibles is pretty high. I think im barely at 94 decibles and thats at 3 feet. I was playing w/ the decible meter in physics recitation and got a few readings. My car is rediculously loud.

Just to ask but how much louder did the test pipes make your car?
Thanks
