Exhaust drone is killing me

That only works if the source of the drone is the exhaust. Naturally, every exhaust will have a resonance at at least one frequency (and the n-integer harmonics of that frequency or frequencies), but in this case, we basically have a thin-shelled metal drum inches between two pipes. The Corsa might have a nasty resonance, but unfortunately, so do our trunks.
By the way, I read your thread a year ago. Nice to see an engineering approach to a problem.

Oh I get it. Easy way to solve it, tell passengers to shut their traps while you're driving and trying to enjoy the sound of your finely tuned maching. As for music, well that is being played by 8 cylinders beautifully at 1800 rpm .
I guess everyone has their own preferences. The drone is especially helpful when you don't want to have a conversation. Wife starts yapping about how much money you've spent on....blah blah blah, downshift and hit the sweet spot of serenity LOL!
