I love my Thermal 3". Quality is top notch, and the sound is deep and throaty, not too loud at all. Definently should pass the decibel test.

I'm running a 3" downpipe, no cat, and the Thermal, and have no complaints besides the smell.

With the windows up it does drone a bit...but with the slightest bit of throttle while cruising you can barely hear it.

I recorded 130 db just reving the motor to 3K about 1 foot away from the tail pipe...3" thermal, no cat, 3" dp.

I don't know what the spec. is but I dont' think it would pass a db test.

It's not 'loud' per se' but the frequency is weird, it rattles the windows in my house when I start it up in my garage about 30 feet away.
