It would need to pass the initial inspection, and a reinspection after 2 yrs. I wouldn't mind having a quiet and a "proper" set  |
I see no reason why not. I have two sets of side pipes that can attach to the headers at a square, 8-bolt flange. One set is lightly muffled and the other is fully open for track days. I only used the open set once or twice because even race tracks often have noise limits, and it was almost painful backing it out of my enclosed trailer. ... If you're willing to spend the money for custom built, highly muffled pipes for testing, I suspect there is enough room to build a system that will pass your 84db limit.
