Default How to reduce the exhaust sounds??

Hi everyone,

I bought a 2008 H3 and the original owner put a magna flow dual exhaust from the cat back on it. It sounds good when going under 60 but when you hit 65 or so, the sound inside the cabin is very loud. It makes driving on the highway unbearable. It is so loud that I can't hear the people in the backseat and music doesn't drown it out. Sometimes the sounds resonates inside the cabin and is very annoying. Is this normal? How do I minimize the sound? I've been thinking about going back to a stock exhaust but I do like the look of the dual exhaust. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
