You are deeply moved by the sound of your vehicle blowing raspberries out the exhaust

Isn't the mic meant to be 1m from the exhaust, and not directly behind it? (like some shallow angle away from the actual exhaust)
Not saying you haven't done this... so it's actually more of a question that me is asking you (or others in the know) |

The limit is 90db for an I6, i know this because i got done and was only 1db (91db) above the limit so they chucked in a resi and took it down to 89db (it may vary in different states) The limit for V8's is higher than 90db not sure of the exact figure.
