What year? My wife has commented on the sound but no complaints.
After I got my SRI, I didn't tell her, was waiting for her to say something. I thought for sure she would tell me something was wrong because there was a hissing sound everytime she turned the car off. lolLove that sig!

This bit of wisdom--complete with mangled English and misspellings--comes from a circa 1960 Honda motorcycle owner's manual: "At the rise of the hand by policeman, stop rapidly. Do not pass him by or otherwise disrespect him." It goes on to say, "When a passenger of the foot, hooves in sight, tootel the horn trumpet melodiously at first. If he still obstacles your passage, tootel him with vigor and express by word of mouth, warning, Hi! Hi!" And even more importantly, "Give big space to the festive dog that makes sport in roadway. Avoid entanglement of dog with wheel spokes." And finally it states, "Your safety is our main concern. Ride right and be safe. Instructables can be confusable."

Most don't noticed those things. At least not right away.
Oh, it's not that she doesn't know, or hasn't noticed. The P5 is her car, we'll both be racing it next season, etc. I'm just waiting to see if the sound bothers her. I put the aftermarket RB axleback on my sedan when I first got it, but I took it off soon after because the drone on the highway was maddening! The MSP axle-back is much better, but it is noticeably louder around town sometimes, and she hasn't really said whether she likes it or not.
She bought the P5 at the very end of 03, so we still have another full year on the warrenty, and we're only at 28,000 miles on it, so we've got quite a while to go. Because of that, we've not modded it much, as she doesn't want to F up her warrenty! I'm thinking they wouldn't give us any trouble about a CAI, but I'm going to wait 'til after it's over to install the header.
...and yeah, the owner's manual thing cracked me up, too, that's why I put it in my sig!

punch her in the gooch and tell just do it. married ppl are just bitches 
Finished the rear wing mod. No more rattle. I did it slightly different though by using the same felt pieces as stock and padded various points, thus you can't even tell anything was done to it. Boy the car looked strange without that wing on.
One less thing the next owner of my car will have to do...(hint hint...Mark).
