Default How loud will my car be?

As the title really, I fancy getting on track and as Goodwood is only just down the road from me I though that would be a good place to start but they have noise limits.

My car is a 2002 WRX with Milltek 3' with CAT and a de-cat uppipe. Will I meet the 105db level or even the 98db levels required?

My 3 inch Milltek decat with centre resonator is 93db at 5200 rpm. But would fail on a drive by measurement.

Depends whether their noise test is static or drive-by

If you live near them then why not give them a ring and see if you can pop in and get noise checked on the promise of doing some track work?
