The provincial regulations being enforced by the VPD are quite clear, maximum noise level for cars is 84db, if the exhaust on the Huracan can be measured as making a noise >84db then it is not compliant with the regulations.

It's worth noting that Federal and Provincial permissible vehicle noise levels are very much aligned.

Huracan measured at 95db (In cabin)

Huracan measured at 109db
The web is also littered with threads where Huracan owners have been kicked off tracks for the stock exhausts putting out >100db of noise.
So then, it seems fairly safe to say that the Huracan is capable of producing a noise >84db.
I'll also suggest that it is highly unlikely that Transport Canada performs any independent testing of vehicle noise levels to verify compliance to the regulations. TC most likely relies on broad certifying statements from vehicle manufactures that state the vehicle satisfies all Canadian standards etc. It seems to me that some people assume that every make/model delivered to Canada is put up on rollers and tested by TC for noise levels, this is clearly not the case.
I hope you are satisfied with my response.
