Probably as loud as shit! I'm sure all the noisy mufflers are straight-throughs, although there might be some quiet ones around if they're long enough.

Can you get any data from Vibrant themselves?

Vibrant's not in here, but this is the muffler comparison I posted up a while back-

found these.anyone know the max sound level allowed in nz?

Over the years, we have conducted numerous tests, on a wide variety of vehicles, to gauge the sound levels produced by our
exhaust systems. We exclusively use the SAE J1169-1998 testing standard when we gauging the exhaust tone produced by
our exhaust systems. This is the same testing standard used by the State of California and several other states for testing
vehicles equipped with aftermarket performance exhaust systems. We are proud that virtually all of our direct fit exhaust
systems register at or below 95db using the SAE standard noted above. Please keep in mind that, when used in conjunction
with other products (such as air intake kits or exhaust headers), the overall combined effect might cause particular vehicles to
exceed the allowable limits.
