Well done,

It would be nice to describe what you did in order to reduce the noise for future builders.

well done

second on how you got the noise down

For the retest I keptthe same exhaust (6" by 22" and fitted a restrictor. But found most of the noise was coming from the engine bays and panels resonating. So fitted and airbox lined the engine bay and side pannels with accoustic foam. managed to get back 12 dB

Ohh!! you finally managed to do it by only using these. Well impressed.

Nice one!

Once you get the plates be carefull out there. These things bite you in the arse at the first oppertunity!

You failed twice? Is this to say that you got 2 SVA retests? I thought you were only allowed one?

I had two fails with mine, third time lucky though.
