Default XKR 1999 exhaust note modification

Hi All
I have recently purchased a 1999 XKR and have read old forums talking about improving the exhaust note. The forums suggested to remove fuse 19 which was located in the center behind the rear seats.
I have removed the rear seats to look for the fuse panel but it doesnt exist.
Therefore can you please let me know the follwoing
1) is there a fuse 19 that improves the exhaust note
2) if so where is it - I have looked behind the rear seats and cant find it.

Sorry I am a bit of a novice but I will have a go

appreciate any advice

Ta

There is no connection between the exhaust and the electrical system on the X100. Your forum references may be for later models with active exhaust systems.

Change your CATS from 400 to 200 cell. You will get a more noisy car exhaust if thats what you want.
