Default Outside exhaust sound inside?

I have the Adamesh Stage 1 and Stage 2 exhaust but it doesn't sound as good inside as it does outside. How can I make the inside sound like the outside sound?

Open the windows or drop the top If it is a convertible.

It's a Coupe, opening the windows doesn't really make much difference unless you go through a narrow street with high walls either side. Then it sounds great.

Yeah, the same applies to my car. You could remove insulation (that will make everything louder, even other cars), or you could pipe the exhaust sound straight into the cabin.

In my Land Rover days I know you could get a V8 exhaust simulator to play on the radio. Would that help?

I do feel your pain. Invest money in exhaust note and you get no return

The obvious solution would be a properly placed external microphone and interior speaker(s).

Just tape(CD) the sounds and play on continuous loop tied to your radio.
