Can't say I didn't see it coming. Instead of trading/selling the exhaust you should look into lining some of your floorboard with dynamat or some other form of sound deadening material. It will go a long way if you want the aesthetics/performance of an exhaust without the sound. Especially considering your current exhaust is not loud at all.

Has this been proven to work well? If so that would be great because I'd love to reduce road noise at the same time... plus the exhaust weight savings make up for any weight gain I'd add with the Dynamat. Is there someone local who installs this stuff (I'm guessing an audio installer might?)? I'm on break from school this week so I'd love to get something done soon.

As for saying the exhaust is not loud at all, that may be slightly misleading for some people. It probably isn't loud compared other 70mm exhausts for this car though.

It's not too hard to do the Dynamat yourself, but if you need any pointers you can pm me

Dynamat helps a ton. I think you can achieve almost stock levels of sound with the Greddy. When I had it on my car it was only slightly more audible than stock from within the cabin.
