Has anyone passed the SAE J-1970 drive by test??
#1
Has anyone had to do the SAE J-1970 50 drive by dB test and if so what kind of Boat -motors-and exhaust did you have???
I'm looking for options on how to quiet the my boat down
it is a 96 Cigarette Top Gun with 800hp whipple's CMI headers with HPI mufflers with turn down about 2-3 inches below the water at a ideal I tested 88 dB but the drive by I was 91 dB I need to drop it about 11-12 dB
So I'm looking for any ideas??
My first idea is to make it 90* tight to the transom and mount the HPI mufflers in a vertical position and extend the pipe down to just about the bottom of the boat and 45* backwards with a bracket on the bottom to the transom
but I am open to any thing that is goinng to work.
