C7 Z06 too loud
Is there an after market fix for lowering the db? A local track needs it below 94db to get on the track and can't bust 98db during sessions without incurring a large fine.

Sounds like a place not worth visiting to me!

As it is the cars EGT's are pushing the margin for damaging the catalytic converters. We see 1600* regularly when pushing the car on the street. I imagine on a track with the valves closed you are asking for trouble.

Turn 12!
Seriously, I use Track Mode around town and Tour on the freeways. The sound never bothers me as when I am driving my car, its usually on the weekends having fun.
I am sure something in the ECU can be modified.
