So I just finished speaking with Mike from Lotus, he unfortunately cannot pay for my inspection fees as he feels that he providing me with the OEM exhaust makes up for a portion of the fault. The rest of the fault was made up when I purchased the car and we went over what had been done to it. He suggests that I asked Perrin themselves for a dB test on their exhaust and if their testing coincides with what's written in our MVA then he said "I bet you you could walk right up to that with Toyota and show them that your vehicle is legal under the MVA and bypass the inspection completely."
However, he says to get back to him after Perrin replies and he will see what else he can do. I also told him about the possibility of dealerships having to go through more effort to make pre-owned sales and he agrees. However, he wants to wait until the inspection before saying anything to other dealers.
Also got a soundclip of a Lotus Evora 400, and yeah, stock is louder than my car or just as loud.
