Well this is a new one... I work market hours so I leave at 3:40am every day.
I'm not sure how to bring this up with her as she yelled at me for vacuuming Wifey's car a few weeks back. None of my other neighbors have complained, including those who are directly in the line of the exiting exhaust, and I proactively ask if I am bothering people by doing my car work and the sound of my car in the morning. Even with lady upstairs with a new baby says she doesn't hear it and it doesn't bother the baby.
It looks like I will be parking over by the pool now, backed into the spot, as there are not condo's within direct line of the exhaust that way. It is still very frustrating, as I have a covered spot so that I don't need to get into my car in the rain.
I am probably going to be moving to CO in June, so I am tempted to ignore this. However I have been looking into picking up an STI mid-pipe back to reduce the sound output somewhat. This could be an accelerant to that plan, which is unfortunate as the parts I will need and additional work will not be cheap. Plus, if I am not able to do the work at my house it will likely cost me an additional $200.
The irony of this is that she sits on her patio on the phone all day yelling into the phone so loudly that you can hear her from the pool. For perspective, the pool is almost 200ft away.
This first bit is the exact setup that I have:
