well, it's like you said, some people are just more sensistive to the noises, going to the racetracks dont really bother me much, unless it's the nitro cars, those are just a whole new type of loud, imo the stock exhaust setup sounds great, for stock. my taste, I want a set of slp loudmouths, or maybe just some magnaflows with an exhaust cutout before the cat for when I want to really hear her roar

Here's how I kept my cars in the praries dust free, so mayme that'd work for noise too ? I'd keep the interior sort of pressurised by having the windows 99% up and the fan cranked, this seemed to keep a lot out so when we all drove a long way to work I had hardly anything inside. So maybe it would blow out music or drone too ?

I hear these ear pieces also help ?

:lol:

After driving the GT with the stock exhaust for about a week+, I no longer get a ringing in my ears. I love the sound of silence.

After I put on my Stingers, I was surprised at how loud they were...but I got used to it. No hearing loss, either.
