So I just read where California just passed an excessive noise law? How’s that going to affect the vette owners, they can be loud.

C&D measured the LT1/NPP at WOT at 89dB years ago. LT4 was 95dB. That’s loud, but certainly not excessive. Did this new law specify noice parameters? I’d say it’s trying to regulate modified exhaust and not OEM... but I could be wrong.
