Sure but 130db is a bit unnecessary - also what safety are bikers achieving by revving the tits out of their bikes with modified exhausts in front of their own houses?



With pleasure :lol:
What are you? A nazi neighbour, it's their house. Have a word with them, I'm sure they'll listen to you with your stock exhaust...

I have greyhounds and they rarely make any noise. Smaller the dog the noisier they tend to be.
Bit like humans really.
When I was a boy in the 60s we had a couple of greyhounds trained at Geggus in Henlow and use to run at Walthamstow and Hackney Wick, like a lifetime ago now.

With the absurd 20mph speed limit in force across central London, and the local council money making machines aka cameras; these latest devices are another example, albeit further down the list, of making ownership of a car just too painful an experience.
This after all is the agenda that is being worked towards!

I'm inclined to think that Lambo fuckwits* in west London are heavily to blame here. No one wants a bunch of pricks thrashing their cars up and down a residential street at all hours, even petrolheads. I love the sound of a loud car, but there's a time and a place. Occasional is fine (all things are noisy occasionally) but when it's incessant it needs dealing with.

*other fuckwits are available

20 mph has arrived at so many places that uses to 30, surely more pollution as you are 30% longer polluting ;) As for dB meters, I'll just not visit, fine by me lol.

Theres a bloke round here with an Audi R8, he seems to spend the entirety of Saturday afternoon driving round town in first gear bouncing it off the rev limiter, often accompanied by another goon in either an m140i or little AMG thing pretending he’s got anti lag and destroying his catalytic converter. They’re just complete wankers. It doesn’t even sound nice!!

Yeah, if you're going to be offensively loud you at least should sound good.

I think our local drug dealers/gangsta wannabe drives an Estoril blue 140i. He does the pop pop bang bang thing too. Hits the revs limiter in first when cold too.

That's just being a tit. Not really anything to do with a loud pipe or not. It would be unpleasant revving the tits off anything outside anyone's house with a stock exhaust.
