Waiting for Tony's response to this... 
Haha, guess I'm going to get targeted soon too. LOL. But I have to appease the wife, the kids (bedroom is above the garage!), the neighbors (unhappy that I set off 2 car alarms on cold start in the morning before 8am). GT sounds beautiful. Hopefully GTS reduces it just enough to reduce my stress and nothing more.
Also the GT has exposed some interior rattling sounds which are annoying. Found two already but can't find the third. One is the buttons on the computer stem on the left side of the steering wheel (bc, check, etc). Those buttons are rattling at certain levels of low hz sound from the exhaust. The second is covering around the rear view mirror mount. It's creaking a bit at certain RPM. There's a third on the passenger side somewhere but I have yet to find it.

My Ride: E60 530i (non sport)...an all stock virgin, but not for long ;)
Here is the first video of our GTS exhaust for the M5. Same power as the popular GT but with a 20% reduction in drone and low hz volume.

I have zero rattling and just drive around with pure bliss. GTS is for Tony the VAGINA!!!!

HAHAHAHA! Just wait till you come here next time to have dinner at Boiling Crab. Going to put some laxatives in your garlic butter sauce right before you board your red-eye flight home. 
You forget I have headers too so my car was as loud as it can get.

We'll see what the difference is. I was going to make a video and put it up showing GTS vs GT. If I don't feel good about the volume change, I'll just switch back to GT. In the mornings the loudness bothers me (because it bothers everyone around me) but then after I'm out of my neighborhood it's pure awesomeness! Wish I could have a button ... on/off ...Damn Tony.. (ignore comment about headers... ignore comment about headers)...

Headers are gay.
