I had the dealer turn off the piped engine sound. They didn't even know it was a 'feature' until I mentioned it but switched it off easily enough.

At first it was a bit strange without it but only because it's unnatural to have so much sound from the engine at higher rpm and at speed. Now it sounds great and it's so good to know what I hear is real and not BS coming through the speakers.

I'm very tempted to go for more intake sound because that will come on strong where the exhaust starts to quiet down at the top end. I know the long tube cold air intakes make the best power but i'm more interested in the sound to be honest and wonder how much they produce tucked away in the nose?
Currently I have silicone intake pipes with drop in AFE filters.
