Question Louder Sound on F-Type R

Hello, I am a F-Type R owner who is used to driving stock cars. I personally enjoy the sound of my stock F-Type R, but I wanted to increase the engine sound without deleting my mufflers. I am considering deleting my headers to let out more sound without me even stepping on the gas pedal. ***My focus is to increase my volume without affecting the sound quality itself, because I just LOVE how the car originally sounds.

headers ? manifolds ? im quite certain you cant delete those ,
but maybe swap from one to the other .

Push the button to the right of the traction control so that it is illuminated which opens the baffles making the car the same loudness as it would be if you had it in Dynamic mode.

Adding headers requires the conversion to 200 cell cats. In combination the sound is obnoxiously raspy. Installing the 200 cell cats alone is less obnoxious. Changing the muffler can increase sound as well. Have a chat with Stuart at Velocity AP and he can guide you towards what you want.
