1)the faster the car is moving the louder you can have it...
example... nobody is going to hear your car even if its blasting at 140+ dB's if you're doing 70's on the highway with your windows up.

2) If your windows are down you gotta cut the volume by half of what you normally can get away with

3) If you're not moving, like sitting at a stop, you should lower the volume until you start moving again... Most stereos come with an Attenuation button that'll decrease the volume by like 20dB instantly... or you can just turn it down by hand.

Just FYI, Harleys come new with quiet exhausts. Their owners spend lots of money to make them loud.
