    yeah they have to measure the decibel readings for it to be considered "too loud" did they get you on anything else mate??? u might have to take those hotdogs out and chuck some mufflers in. if you buy the mufflers i can save ya some coin by welding em in for ya.

    That sucks man, when I took mine they didn’t even test it for sound. But they did it for being to low. Good luck

    hey man nope canary is still there... i have to get my diff rebuilt and pull the engine out to do a rear main seal... gunna be off the road for a while... good news is im saving cash now im not paying for so much fuel and i also got a 3 pronged pulley tool to get the harmonic balancer off to so gunna start pulling the front apart again when i can be bothered, i can fix most of the little stuff myself but things like the diff and rear main seal ill leave to someone with the right tools and knowledge... depends on how much i can save im looking at at cam too...

    Good luck with getting it all done mate. I think something is up with my diff (touch wood its alight) it makes a strange sound while decelerating.

    Rear main seals seam to be a common problem on these motors . But good luck with all the future mods . A cam would be sweet . Even a bigger stall .
