Now that things have cooled down (I got 26 emails!) I am happy to say I put the muffler on the car today and it purrs like a kitten. I just hope it still roars at 8500 rpm redline. It will be way und

Are there any sound limitations at Monster? My car has open exhaust and it's pretty loud. It would run in OSP in the first run group. Dennis Clark

Charles, "properly muffled" is dependent on the site. Many sites do not have sound restrictions, and an exhaust system without a muffler can be proper. Rob's GT2 has a open exhaust muffled only by th

"Properly muffled" is a rule, not site dependent. "Properly" may be, but "muffled" is not. The rule doesn't say the exhaust has to have a muffler. Turbos muffle the exhaust, whether "properly" that c

Of course what "properly muffled" means is open to interpretation. My Evo running with muffler-delete and cat-delete pipes is still much quieter than a lot of non-turbo cars equipped with "token muff

To me, the word "properly" does not imply a minimum amount. It means whatever is appropriate, and can include none at all. If Dennis' exhaust meets the region's sound requirement, then it is properly

As you say, a turbo effectively (very) acts as a muffler and muffles the exhaust adequately sometimes even for San Diego (although, sometimes not). The rule does not say exhaust must be "quiet", if t

I do disagree, but that's me. I read it that "Properly" is a qualifier, "muffled" is not indicating there must be some device modifying the exhaust noise compared to being not muffled. If the competi

Referring to the 2006 Solo Rulebook: 3.5 Mufflers Adequate mufflers are required for Solo events. The criterion of "adequacy" is not what the exhaust system consists of, but the sound level. Any car

Yep...the quote of 3.5 still states there must be a some device used as a muffler. It states "The criterion of "adequacy" is not what the exhaust system consists of, but he sound level." It does not

I'm sure a set of headers or simple exhaust manifolds substantially muffles the db level of the engine without them. The same could be said for downpipes, or even a length of pipe out the back inste

On the contrary Carl. Virtually all headers (after market) produce more noise, in fact, do not muffle the exhaust in any way, typically furthers exhaust flow thereby promoting (typically) more power

Okay, then the last inch of the exhaust tip is a muffler. Its adequacy is defined according to the criterion in section 3.5. What is your definition of a muffler? You seem to refer to function, but t
