I was just reading that Myrtle Beach ordanence and it says that your exhaust can't be more than 87dB at 20 inches.

Man, you better not talk to the cop as he's measuring the level, you're sure give a higher reading.

As a reference, here are the SPLs for two persons talking (not shouting) at various differences (level at the receiver's ear).:

0.25m 0.5m 1m 1.5m 2m 3m
70-76dB 65-71dB 58-64dB 55-61dB 52-58dB 50-56dB

We talk at 76db, if your protesting to a PO then your probably higher than 87db at 20 inches.

I guess they don't want people even yelling across the street. I used to like Myrtle Beach.

Where is this "Federal EPA required labeling" thing that Myrtle Beach and Denver are talking about?

I got my Star brand new and my exhaust didn't have a label on it. I only peeled stickers off of my windshield, my engine guard, and the gas tank.


It's stamped into the exhaust on the underside, if you're running stock pipes you're fine.
