[Es2] Who needs a 3 inch DP and exhaust?

[Dave Hord]

On a turbo system 3" should not be unbearibly loud at all. The turbo does a whole lot for dampening out the noise volume. 

While I haven't experienced 034's system myself, 4.5 years of exhaust design experience tells me their system should be be in the 'sporty' scale of volume. 

On a 20vt, my estimate would be some-where between 92-96db by the SAE test. That's a guess based entirely on the design, muffler used and some experience. I could be way off.

My question is, how loud is this sytem going to be? I've heard that once 
you're up to 3", it gets unbearably loud. I'm wondering if I should stick 
with 2.75". It is a beautifully crafted system though....
