Default I want to add some engine sound....
Any reasonable DIYs to give my S60t some fun engine sound? I love both a sweet INTAKE sound, and a semi-fierce exhaust note.

In terms of DIY, you can hack off the rear muffler for added noise.

If wifey doesn't like it, tell her to get back in the kitchen.

two choices - invest in a better stereo and turn up your tunes or go with a new cat back exhaust design. Not sure how much sound you'd get on the intake side. I did a KN filter on my 850 and didn't notice anything new.

The sound is meh, at best. Needs more, but not stupid. Help?
