Using Stealth starts also wear out your AFM and NPP valves and get you that rattle sooner.

Would like an exhaust that isn't loud on start, stays tame until you hit 2500rpm and gets progressively angrier as it climbs. It's like someone lost the plans on how to build a street car exhaust and they are all some variant of a track, DB-limited exhaust instead now.
From what I understand from numerous people that loud cold start is something that you just have to live with if you have any type of aftermarket exhaust. While it is loud it does sound really good.
