Can someone post a sound clip of how it sounds inside the car while driving after installing Mina exhaust? Preferably on a stock NA 5.0L v8.

Planning to install Mina on my 2012 XF Portfolio. Having a E36 M3 with Remus exhaust as a week end car, I am sure I will enjoy the new growl but want to get a sense of what to expect for my sound sensitive wife who wants to keep the Jag as a family car.

I could find some sound clips of start up, reving etc while car is stopped. Trying to see if I can get something which gives an idea of the sound level inside the car on day to day driving cruising on freeway, low rpm regular street drive etc.


Thanks a lot

 

Get her some beats earbuds and everyone will be happy!

I have mina on my XFR but getting a video clip on here seems challenging! Sorry...

 

Ha ha....Been there done that :-)

While there are so may sound tracks of exhaust mods with start up and revs etc, I guess it will be more useful to have something with actual driving.

 

I have an XFR ...

There is some drone around 2500 rpm.

 

come on folks...just push the record button of your phones while driving and put it here. Its not that complex

 

I honestly don't think an XFR will sound identical to an XF. I love the added growl - that's why I plucked down $900!

 

Since original question was around noise levels with Mina exhaust, I think, what he meant to say was that his XFR with Mina exhaust makes some
drone at 2500 rpm

 

I installed a Mina muffler a couple months ago and it drones really bad at 1700-1800 RPMs. Then I decided to swap the Mina for Spires cat-back.

 

No, but I honestly doubt it will help you decide - should it be recorded in the front or rear seats ? What automatic gain will the phone apply to the recording that isn't going to be what actually sounds like ?

I had the Varex switchable mufflers on my XFR and when in the open position, I wasn't aware of any drone in the drivers seat but the rear passengers "benefitted" from the increased sound.
