Quick Blitz Nur-spec catback sound question...

Just wondering:

is it loud beyond legal limits? (95db here in california...)

and if not, it is loud enough to get pulled over a ridiculous amount of times?

i know it sounds good, and the price is definitely a plus, but i don't feel like having police on my tail



thanks guys!

i have 3" all the way w/ no cat, and a blitz nur-spec. its much louder than my greddy sp was if that's any reference for you. I'm sure it's over 95db.

Without a midpipe it isnt bad at all it is actually relatively quiet. However, with a dpipe, and midpipe it is the loudest of the 6-7 exhaust that I have had. With a midpipe on the car it will definately attract attention which I personally didnt care for. Dont know about db level.

I had one on my S13 with a swapped SR.
the idle was pretty loud , on WOT its not too bad , but when you let off the throttle
it drones really loud , more of like a bass noise. But i heard on rotaries it sounds a bit raspy.
But it does come with a removable silencer.

I've got one and my car at idle can be felt inside my office building, across 75 ft of parking lot if that tells you anything. I was racing a Z06 and a friend in a 1st gen was at least half a mile to 3/4 of a mile behind me and it was still loud to him. No cats on the car, straight 3" all the way back.
