I have 2"TSP headers going catless to the stock suitcase. I run my car in sport mode with the valves open. I thought the car would be way loud at idle and breaking windows at redline. Ok, it may be loud at WOT (but in my opinion, nothing that even approaches all of the adjectives I see thrown around in this forum), AND she has no presence at idle or easily going through the gears. With the valves open, isn't she pretty much straight-piped? What am I missing, here?

If I put anything in the exhaust flow, won't it make it even quieter? I really want to make her louder and more noticeable all the time. Any help and all opinions will be greatly appreciated.
