Audiocontrol (AudioControl Epic150) makes a little indash SPL meter that is accurate up to 150dB then it starts to get a little off the higher up you go. You can find them for around 200-250 online. Its been said people have had 12dB increase from it...but id guess an average of 4, give or take.

What 12's? I prolly can meet up with ya and help ya tune it and make it better. I can take ya to a local shop with a hand held meter. Not the most accurate but its a good idea to get a ballpark of where u are.

one of the cheapest on the market, but it's pretty **** accurate from what I can see. I've used one a few times, and was on the money. Used it right at the lanes.

epic 150 is about as acurate as a radiochack meter to be completly honest. i know a guy here who used one to measure his he2's hit a 149 then went to the lanes at a comp and hit a 143 so it was off by 6 db not accurate at all.
