California AB1824 (exhaust system)

AMG's have electric cutouts and they get pretty loud WOT. Same as R8's and a plethora of ultra new supercars. When do they measure the db's? At WOT or idle? Even a short headered exhaust can sound pretty docile just above idle.

That was exactly my point. These guys (like the neighbor I mentioned) do this sort of thing and are in the loud peddle every chance they get.

As for the thin-skinned reactionaries out there... My Dart idles at 88db measured at 1 meter, and I DON"T drive like a jackass.
