not to sure with a mini tuned pipe on how loud it will be. But usually pipes make a very high pitch scream sound.
I know on ground I always use ear plugs when tunning. So they are fairly loud.

Lanier F-4?
Good choice on the Rossi- No idea on the noise level at all...
What is the DB max at your field 90db@ 10 feet?
I love that little F-4...

mini tuned silenceser
I have that setup. It is quieter than a stock muffler at a given rpm but with a small prop it can really crank out the rpms. If you use a 10x6 it will not be an issue. If you go to a 9 something then you might turn some heads.

Aw come on, put an APC 9x8 on it! I love mine, they won't yell, they will just stand there with their mouths open when it screams past the field. God, I love that sound coming out of a dive as planes are scrambling to get out of your flight path. hehe
