Sure is quieter than the N/A stage 2. I hope this puts to rest the questions about which is louder - the N/A stage 2 has a deeper bass-like tone and a scream at WOT that the new S version squelches.

So if you want quieter get the S stage 2
If you want loud and some prolonged drone get the N/A stage 2.

Also - from what I have heard, the new S version doesn't pop as much or quite like the N/A stage 2. I have the N/A stage 2 on my S and it pops letting off the throttle (even medium accelleration), upshifting under heavy accelleration and at a coast in 1st 2nd and 3rd gear. Now that may not be a good thing and could be another reason why Lotus came out with this version on the S - to tone that down and those little bursts of flame???
