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???

That's quieter than the n/a Stage II? (which I have on my Elise). I like the sound of it, did not realize that the n/a Stage II was louder (maybe I lost some hearing because of it). I guess I need to get a recording of mine done next time I'm at the track.
You also might want to blip your throttle coming before downshifting from such a high rev and save wear on your drivetrain.
