drone is a bad point to make. stock exhaust is very quiet and in the past has never been a problem. what all of a sudden its a problem ?

the reason is these new turbo engine are not very vocal. the old V10 and about to be old M3 V8 with there loud induction sounds/and the fact being a naturally aspirated made them sound louder (engine wise, not exhaust).
