I have been tested once and warned twice by the EPA of my exhaust being too loud.

And to be honest I am sick of it's loudness too!

Can any prescribe a quick cheap fix?

I was looking at getting one of these silencer baffle plates which goes at the end of the muffler, are they known to actually quiten the exhaust sound down or is it just a wank?

Apexi ECV (Exhaust Control Value) no cheap tho around $200-$300 plus install.

You can adjust the volume of airflow through your exhaust in cabin (its like a butterfly)

do a search on it, (the are fitting just before the CAT)

but like i said not cheap.

these silencer baffle plates that your referring to will REDUCE the sound of your exhaust & ALSO performance.

if you intend to put on of those silence baffle plates on (don't rev/push your car because it isn't good for your car), you may as well get a STOCK exhaust system.

OR if you intend to use your car daily driver then get one of those silence baffle plates then TAKE it off when you goto track or whatever (i had one of these on my car NOT easy to TAKE off), it came with my apexi n1 exhaust and alot of aussie brand mufflers usually include them these days but are adjustable.

why don't you just get an exhaust shop to put in a couple of straight through mufflers? my system has 2 x 3in mufflers and it is legal - cost $150 per muffler and didn't hurt the exhaust flow.

one goes at the rear (where you normally see the cannon type mufflers) and the other under the car just in front of the L/H driveshaft.

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
