Yet half of the others on here go and throw stiffer, lower suspension, m bits of this and that, narky diverted valves to make their BMWs sound like '80's Silvias etc, etc.... on their cars to do exactly the same thing.... make it just the way they want because it didn't quite come out of the factory, the way they wanted.
I haven't read all posts so I hope you find or have found your answer and you're able to make your car just as you want. Just had to respond with my amusement.

Word..
Companies spend millions on R&D to help reduce NHV (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) but because some random guy wants to make his vehicle subjectively pleasing, he gets ostracized for not being 'hardcore.'
Humans...
While I love a good engine note or slight exhaust burble, undesirable mechanical sounds and vibrations can emanate from a car's oily bits, such as a howling radiator fan, a shuddering when idling at traffic lights or a harsh, wince-inducing thump from a pothole.
If restoring the sound deading reduces these undesirable traits; color me a square because I'm all over it.
