      Stealthy so hes off the radar in walmart parking lot, suburbs, industrial zone practically not noticed ( no harassment ) maybe
      it helps not getting towed.

      So, if it were a 25 dB cut (it's not) that's not 80% of normal background noise...They're lying. I have a dB meter. I once bought an horn that was said to be 145db. That was a lie and would cause hearing damage. But 125 isn't bad. A jet is 117, btw.
