Hello everyone,
At the moment I am driving a Renault Clio MK2 1.2L 16V 2003 and today I have replaced the original back box due to corrosion with a 3inch Hoffmann back box. After fitting it the first time I started the car up again with the new back box I instantly thought this is way to loud even on idle. I let the car idle a while to make sure the exhaust paste settles in before going out to drive it. Came back with no problems however I am wondering if it is to loud for the legal limit if there is? this is why I am reaching out to you guys to help me find out about the noise limit of a car on UK public roads. If you could help me out and tell me the current law as I don't want to get any points. All your help will be much appreciated thanks.
