All new Harley's are < 80dba (as are all new vehicles).

Any Post vintage vehicle can have open pipes, ADR's didn't exist to any real extent back then......You don't even need seat belts in Pre-1970 built vehicles.

Yes but are they legal?

I hear lots of cars that are well over the legal limit daily. Just because you hear it, doesn't mean it is legal.

I've got one on my MY06 STI

If you want to hear it I've uploaded a vid on Utube with externals and interal sound.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbxzY_br4eo

Pros are obviously, Cons however, the bastard keeps seizing up, have to take the muffler off at least once a fortnight to free up the valve. Now I've just give up and left it full open, might as well have bought a normal cannon.

Nice comparison. Interesting to hear about the valve getting stuck.
Take your rego sticker off.

I read on other threads that people reported the valve getting stuck. That would be fairly annoying.

Where did you take your wiring to? The battery or the cigarette lighter?
