If you get a state referee sticker on your ticket and get the car checked out, instead of previously getting the ticket signed off as a correctable and paying the $25 correction fee, now it is not correctable and is a $200 fine. Again, nothing new here, aside the $175 difference in the ticket. The car still "needs" an adequate muffler system per law states and below 95db.

It's 95, at least I can tell you definitively this is what they test for. This is from my state referee test document.
