vrrrrrrrrrr/BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I am not going to get any exhaust mainly due to added bassy droniness introduced in the cabin.....(which obviously varies in intensity depending on exhaust)

I'll have to live with the stock exhaust which sounds...fine. But there are times i wish it has more of a beefy sound.
Maybe im just old now but i prefer to not add any more sound to the car than it already has.

Had a customized exhuast in the ol XRS (2zz baby!) and there was an annoying drone somewhere in the 3k-4k rpm range. The good news was i could control the actual tone depending on pedal pressure (just above the RPM it went away, just below it went away), but the bad news was it was right in the cruising RPM so it was just annoying as I was in that RPM fairly often.
