Hi all, looking at a 2005 stock Elise exhaust and trying to determine if it will fit my 2006 Exige. Currently have a Lotus stage 2 and it is tiresome on long drives to the track (300 miles on highway), drones away like mad.

It should fit on your Exige just fine.

I've gone that far with a Stage ll. It's no problem with ear plugs. There are several brands that even allow you to have a conversation, without excess noise from the exhaust. Even cheapo plugs seem to work. The disposables are less than .10 cents a pair. You can go upwards of $50.00+ for trick ones, if you like.

...granted, it's much quieter, but even the stock exhaust requires earplugs for long drives, i'm afraid...

IMHO, stock is fine for long distance. I did 2000 miles in 3 days w/o earplugs.

To the OP, yes, it will fit

Only if the volume is too high on the stereo...

i wish i had them when i drove back 9 hours from vegas when i picked up the car, and i've had passengers on 3.5 hour drives and i offered them earplugs for the ride... they opted not to, and by the end of the drive they did comment that it did end up being a bit tiresome by the end. Stock base exhaust. I use earplugs for anything more than 20 minutes but that's just me.

Yes, it will work fine. If you need a stock or aftermarket exhaust, let me know. We have some stock exhausts available for $150 each.

The Exige is just a boomier car. Exhausts that are reasonable on an Elise will drone like crazy in an Exige. :crazyeyes

Is the Exige boomier even without the supercharger, I thought it was the SC that made it louder...
