      @@AMMO-NYC To be honest the main problem with the pressure differences between those devices is the measure set up. The iPhone app measure the sound in dB Z (with Z frequency weighting, used for "flat" frequency response from 10 kHz to 20 kHz) and the noise dosimeter measure it in dB A (with A frequency weighting, similar to human perception). Larry, on the right side of the app screen you can find a slider with letters to change that :) Some basic info can be found here: www.cirrusresearch.co.uk/blog/2011/08/what-are-a-c-z-frequency-weightings/.

I asked them what the practical point was: would it help them make more power or be more efficient?

Also Love the exhaust work but does anybody else think the cut out valve setup is unnecessarily complicated? Garage door opener, pickup a signal to an electronic controller which diverts some vacuum from the vacuum lines?? That's almost Rube Goldberg in design. I assume there's not an easier way to integrate?

Understanding that the video was about the exhaust upgrade, in hindsight, you should've also gotten a baseline for horsepower numbers before and after the upgrade...because it is highly likely that you will receive an additional increase in either torque or horsepower...possibly both if the car is properly tuned to better manage the airflow modifications that you are doing...

  • @ds98136
    @ds98136 5 років тому

    Just to clarify for anyone who cares. The math Larry put up for the sound measurements is for sound power or sound intensity, where increases of 10 dB are factors of 10 times power, 10*log.
    But the sound level meters he used measure sound pressure, not sound intensity.
    Sound pressure is 20 dB for a 10 times increase in pressure, 20*log.
    eg: 1 pascal = 94 dB, 10 pascal = 104 dB, 100 pascal = 124 dB.
    Also, the blue sound level meter is measuring dBA, not dB.
    dBA is what humans hear. dB or dBZ is the true or unweighted sound pressure level.
    Humans (and most mammals) don't hear frequencies outside of their speech spectrum well, dBA takes this into account.

  • @UltimateJobas
    @UltimateJobas 6 років тому

    I think that the difference for the readings of the sound meters is that the green one uses dBA, which uses another weighting for sound, more compatible with human hearing. The usual dB does not account that we are more sensible to the mid-low frequencies (up to approx 1000Hz)

  • @Marcony-R2D2
    @Marcony-R2D2 6 років тому

    With OEM exhaust your phone was up side down. The mic was up picking up the sound from the air. In the test with the SOUL exhaust the mic was down and picking up the vibrations from the ground with the valve open. That's probably why it was 15dB louder at idle
