Hello, was recently pulled over (no ticket recieved) for having a "loud" vehicle, passed the exhaust test on the spot but the officer said that my car may fail a warrant due to my engine noise. I have ITB intakes fitted which are certed. Is there anything regarding engine/intake noise at all, or just exhaust?

I have ITB intakes fitted which are certed. Is there anything regarding engine/intake noise at all, or just exhaust? I'm not quite sure what you asking, I hope I have interpreted your question correctly. "Are loud ITB's covered by LVV certification? In short the answer is no, vehicle "loudness" is not measured when a modified production vehicle is certified. Vehicle noise is mainly a WoF issue and monitored by the Police in between WoF's. This is not to be confused with a scratch built vehicle where exhaust noise IS measured at the time of certification. (the way this is measured, there is an allowance for loud induction noise) Hopefully that helps. Chris |
