anybody know where I can find this for florida?

If a Riced-out Honda CRX owners trash-can muffler farts in the woods and nobody's there to hear it.. does it still make a sound?

No idea where to find the info you desire... but this was a fantastic opportunity to flame on ricey fart-mufflers.

look at 403.415

And the short answer is: 83 dB A

hope that helps,

How often is this really challenged? I have had an S-10 with no muffler and no cat and had no problem...

I was reading through an old c/d this morning. 83 dB A is the loudness of a stock Viper Srt-10

i don't quite know how loud that is. i usually see them parked or cruising. seems to me that harley's are pretty loud at times, you think they have to meet the same requirement?

i wondered too how much they actually enforce this law.

all this is for my friends truck btw

most harleys aren't as loud as you hear em on the street stock. Most people take out restrictors or whatever else to make em loud. As for enforcement, around me the only times cops will do anything is either when someone complains or when cops are looking to pull you over in which case noise prolly isn't the real reason

Just to piss people off!
