MOT in March

[R33C3]

Just reading the MOT guidelines:MOT Guidelines

and they go on about a exhaust 'silences effectively' so what about everyone who gets kits to make em loud? lol...

I need to get hold of a connector for a side light 01 plate, how much for a connector anyone know? Is it std price everywhere, or varies?

Normal car exhausts are miles below the exhaust noise limit. Think the limit is like 105db or something like that which is like as loud as a chainsaw. Your advised to wear hearing protection if your exposed to that sort of db for any extended period so if your cars louder than that your a fuckin tool imo.

Fair doos, but what about a scooby?

 

[MrMark]

isnt it only measured on idle?

Doesn't matter what your car is. Of course a scooby has a louder exhaust than a 1.2 clio but its still well under the limit. 105db is very loud.

the exhaust noise is not measured on the mot test its all down to the tester, like me lol, if he thinks its 'clearly above the noise emmitted from a standard silencer in average condition'.
