Love this sound. I have a similar set up. Music to my ears every time I turn the key. It sounds so good I plugged up the sound tube and try to open my windows as much as a I can, even when it's a bit chilly.

Yeah.. so, results are in. This f*cker is LOUD. I feel like the drone is less though - pulling up to a stop in gear doesn't produce that vice-like head-squeezing drone it had before, and level pedal on the highway is tolerable.. quiet even so long as there's a slight bit of throttle being applied. Otherwise though.. THIS THING IS LOUD. And that would be fine under full throttle race action, but it's a bit of an embarrassing loud because it's completely disproportionate to the actual speed and power. It's way more bark than bite which seems kind of poser-ish. I am learning to drive it in a quiet manner, which is totally possible. Rather than downshifting to slow down to a stop, i just brake in whatever gear i'm in, to a stop, and shift early to keep the noise down (wife mode).

Does anyone else hear that ringing? Video coming soon

Try plugging the sound tube like I did. It will still be loud and aggressive on the outside, but the cabin will be more quiet for your wife especially in high RPMs.
