It's probably a waste of time trying to take any further course of action, just roll it over the pits and hope it doesn't happen again.

i think 80db is the sound limit for exhausts on cars between 150-320kw. i could be wrong though

Make sure they put a new aftermarket cat in and not replace the
whole thing with a STD system.

You paid the price you did for the car because it included an
aftermarket cannon exhaust so don't let them rip you off and
demand they pay for your pit fees and petrol with all this running
around.

Get a lawyer involved if they refuse, you might be able to make some
coin haha.

Better yet contact Today tonight as they love this shit, Subaru Oz will
have a fit!!!

get there EARLY, eg at least an hour before the gates open (whichever pits you go to). If you get there when it opens, you might be there half a day as Doug said. Everybody has the idea to go early, so unless you want to spend 5 hours not moving... be tehre at sunrise!
