Pulled the exhaust fuse
For those who have their cars, how many are pulling the exhaust fuse?

I'm going to leave mine alone. I like the quiet ride when I'm cruising and the "VRooooooooooooooooom" when I stab the loud pedal.

Why would you do that? The variable back pressure affects torque and we all know back pressure adjustments often demand other adjustments, too.

Stuck at 1100, but when I get it I'll pull it to see what it sounds like then likely replace it.

Peel back the passenger side floor mat and then the floorboard (takes 5 seconds). Find the bottom right fuse, it's a red 10a fuse labeled as "SPARE", just to the right of tonneau cover fuse. Remove it. Car gets twice as loud at idle.

Wire a switch into the circuit, noise on demand.

That's what I'm thinking. Why mess with a fuse. Have to find out if that fuse controls anything else first.
