CleanSierra Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Hey, I was thinking the other day about this, and couldn't get my head around it. Will elevation, or atmospheric pressure affect the ability to hit numbers on a TL. If air is more dense, or thinner, wouldn't that affect the manner in which sound waves can travel through it?

CleanSierra Posted November 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 I was wondering how significant it would be at different pressures. Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-navi-916 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Mine was acfually louder to the ear in top of a steep mountain now idk i didnt have a tl on me but rape mode was rape mode x2 up there. I think it would meter better if the car was lifted like 10ft i think this issue why some competitors fill their vans up with helium cuz its dense someone prove me wrong Quote BUILDLOG http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=61862 "98crewcab"Never a POS....just always "a work in progress" lol that's how we roll bitches!!! Your a lowlife kid. I bet your mother wants to kill herself for not swallowing your ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoudBimmer Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 On really hot day my score was 1db lower then 80 degree weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganberry Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 It all plays a factor just like if you compete on a hot day your scores will generally be lower too. Some extreme people take ac units to fill the cars with cold air before a run to gain even tenths cause to them it all matters. To me I just bass race 39 class even tho its much louder than that so I could care less. But elevation, heat, cold you will meter different in all those. I did psychlone when it first came out and my truck was built for it and was 2nd on the west coast behind jacks beast truck. Went to a super hot show didn't cool off the inside before my run and was down almost 3db so it can play a huge part Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
