NTL, I compared our car, at idle, with another car with a more conventional (as in louder) exhaust system.  Ours was 3 dbB quieter.  Whilst this doesn't seem like much, dB are an exponential measurement - as I recall, 3 dB translate to roughly 60% quieter.  It is significant, and appreciated.  Funny thing is, our Pantera, at 70, has the same interior sound level, in dB, as our 2014 Mercedes SLK 250.  Which really helps when a deaf old fart like me wants to talk to my wife.
