I think there would be a few things that could affect setting off other car alarms. Like hopw sensortive the other cars alarms are, how fast you where driving how hard you where revving, etc.

its good to hear u passed dude :D
i got 85 dB as well but i was also really stressed out when he was revving the car becuz i wasnt to sure how loud my car was either. Plus, who wants to pay all that money to get modified to the regulations.

Daalder exhausts is actually a very good place for exhausts and fittings. Other friends of mine have nothing but good comments about them as well.
Also, different exhausts differ in price. It not neccesarily the size that matters, its the quality of the exhaust and if it suits yr car.
