it has an engine!
When my tune was at 1 lambda at idle and low load, and I could still smell it inside the car when I got in it the next morning, I don't see how the richness of the tune had anything to do with that. The only thing that made it decent to me was switching it to E85. I've run catless cars all my life, and I used to not care, but I'm just getting to the point that I do.
Unburned fuel is what you smell. How strong is dependent on richness. I run fairly aggressive tunes. I rarely ever smell anything.

I realize that that's what I smelled. I'm saying that at 1.0 lambda, the AFR that produces the least amount of unburned fuel, I could smell fuel from the exhaust at any time. I'm not saying it was sickeningly strong like I'd just spilled gas on my shirt, but the smell was there. Even if I had just been cruising for an hour with no WOT pulls, I could still smell it.

I think some people are less bothered by that, but I'm just getting to the point that I am. ~10hp isn't worth it to me. I guarantee that I could get in your car at any time, running or not, and tell that you didn't have cats. I don't want that anymore.

ARH long tubes. X pipe with no cats. No resonators. Maybe later I'll put the cats on and compare noise levels. I should buy a decibel meter.

I still have the stock active mufflers on it. It sounds near stock in normal mode. The Sport mode sounds like all out war. In the videos I never went over 4500 rpm.
Good thing. If you had really gotten on it that Mayberry mailbox would probably have disintegrated.

Lol. I've replaced that mail box and been through 3 post in about a years time. The farmer keeps knocking them done.

If I was not on the West side of the state I would let you borrow dedicated Db meter.

You can find an App called noise sniffer on you phone that will be close.

I have seen +/- 2.5 to 3.0 Db with most phones there close.

It's loud. My 92 lx with a 401 svo Windsor with Yates D3 heads isn't much louder with 3" 2 chamber flow masters and dumps . The voodoo has a much more Crisp and raspy sound. But when you put it in normal mode that crispness kinda goes away some. I love it in the sport mode. I live in a small rural town in Michigan, but I'm right on the Toledo Ohio- Michigan line. When I drive into Toledo I'll have to go into normal mode.

Voodoo I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts and experiences about your ARH system with the forum. We can't thank you enough for choosing ARH and look forward to hearing about your performance results. I expect rock solid performance gains throughout the rpm range. Best of luck. Enjoy!
