I think your best bet is to run that car at a track that doesn't have a sound limit. Or run a different car. Sorry.
The tube idea will help with the noise, but I don't think it's going to be very practical.

nice on the dyno testing! What you have isn't that far off what I bought and have from shawn church.
BTW mike I found there wasn't that big of a problem with sound. not sure if its the paths of the tubes or not. but its not as loud as you would suspect.

this one is CF I believe...
