I still haven't gotten the exhaust yet. Was hoping NLM was going to receive them last week but didn't. I will have him probably ship my exhaust out, if not go there this saturday. But if there are no videos by then i'd be happy to upload some.

Greddy stated that the DB reading was 101. When I followed up asking how they did the DB reading (from how many feet away, at an angle, etc) they responded:

"The testing was conducted to US federal standards. Please research online for details."

I tried looking that up but couldn't find anything. So that reading could be 101 but from really close, we don't know. It doesn't seem too loud from their video they posted but until someone posts a video (or I get my hands on it lol) its kind of hard to judge by that one sound clip. My old maddad exhaust on my STi was rated 87db at idle from like 10ft away, and then I believe around 100 at WOT and it was amazing. I'm more worried about cruising exhaust levels than I am at WOT.

Same here cruising exhaust is very important. Maybe one of the members that have already received the exhaust can post some vids for us. :p

i hear what your saying, i rather the db be higher and then come with silencers so i can adjust the sound level.. BUT what i want to avoid is the exhaust be super quiet - what do we get an exhaust for looks and sound.. as power is neglible/small. have a nice looking exhaust that doesnt make a nice powerful sound..would be an epic fail lol

I actually do not want to have to use the silencers.. I don't even know how they attach because I don't see a drill hole to secure them but I just hate how exhausts look with them haha. I don't think you will have to worry about it being too quiet.
