I thought the medalion touring is one of the quiet exhaust out there... And it's still noisy? If you switch exhaust and worry about the sound then why go aftermarket? Just stay stock...

Well, it was free so I took it. If I had known before they installed it that it would add that much noise inside, I would have taken it and sold it.

I would go back to stock right now, but I don't like that big, bulbous thing attached to the stock exhaust.

How do you even install those?

I'm not sure what size the Medalion Touring is:

I guess that big, bulbous part I'm talking about on the stock exhaust is the muffler. Is there any way to hide the stock exhaust's muffler or make it smaller?

I now want to try a setup where you can't see any muffler or exhaust pipe / tip unless you look under the car.

I don't have the money to spend on stuff like Dynamat, Fatmat, RAAMat, or Second Skin.

There was a DIY on here a long time ago, using a spray can of auto (black) sound deadener in the wheel wells. Made a HUGE difference and a very cheap mod.
