Z-Sport magazine does. They did an exhaust shoot-out several years ago. Members have posted excerpts in the exhaust forum.

Thankfully it's below the Laguna Seca 92db restriction.

I did some measurements at idle.

The sound pressure varies greatly depending on where you're measuring. As an example it's actually quieter standing outside the car about 5 feet way from the side of the car than it is sitting in the driver's seat. The only place that I could find louder than the driver's seats was directly behind the car between the exhaust pipes.

IIRC I was measuring 80 dB at idle ... but it's been several years since I took the measurement.
