For example, OSHA says you can work 8 hrs a day at 90dB but only 1.5 hrs a day at 102dB.

For comparison:
A whisper 30dB
Normal conversation 65dB
Level at where sustained exposure may result in hearing loss 90dB
Power saw at 3' 110dB
Rock concert 115dB
Pain begins 125dB
Jet engine at 100' (loudest exposure with hearing protection, even short exposure without protection can cause permanent damage) 140dB
12ga shotgun 165dB
Hearing tissue death 180dB
Loudest sound possible 194dB
Gotcha, thanks for this. Now I remember from back in the days when I was installing sound systems in the car myself, It's been a while!

Still, in reality the race is not much louder than stock, unless i have the incorrect exhaust installed. I gain nothing by bashing my own car but it's just not that loud!

As matter of factor, wife said she likes the huracan better because it was quieter than my old turbo s with Fabspeed catless Lamborghini Huracan Race Exhaust
