Atom 3 - decat supercharged - noise

Post by No1Dave » Tue Aug 29, 2023 2:55 pm

Hi all, haven't posted for a while but think i may have wasted my money on bookign Bedford Autodrome on 11th September. Ive done a good few track days, including Goodwood, Silverstone, Castle Coombe, Brands and not had issues with noise at all. I think this run might come to end at Bedford though. The static at 101 should be ok but I'm concerned on the drive by as it is sooo low.

Has anyone with a similar set up encounted problems or guidance they can share. I appreciate the potential need to short shift and lift off etc but want to be able to get a proper drive in rather just bumbling around.

Thanks in advance

Done Bedford twice, Atom 3, Supercharged, Decat, no issues at all. No short shifting or being careful required.

Enjoy!

Wow ok brilliant news. I was finding it hard to find a decibel reducer that worked with the turned tips so this saves that search. Thank you

Worth saying mine’s got the standard exhaust but I assume yours has too since you didn’t mention the sports exhaust.

You’ll love Bedford… great circuit to push your limits a little bit wet or dry - really confidence builder. Have a great time.

Thank you. It had sports exhaust once in its life but back on standard now. I’ve done a good number of JP days there over the years so looking forward to linking the different sections together

I was at Snetterton last night and mine measured 102! Standard exact and no cat.

Never been that high before

Must have been a dodgy tester? Mine's always been in the 90s every static test.
