All aftermarket exhausts have drone it's whether the drone is annoying or not though. Stebro's systems are annoying/headache drone that vibrates the entire interior of the car and your brain. Fabspeed doesn't have annoying resonance although it does have a slight bit of resonance. And the drone is only at about 2700 to 3000rpms. The Stebro's droned all the way from 2000-3000rpms, where you'd be in normal daily driving. 5th gear is where I hear the most resonance with the Fabspeed but, as I've said, it's not annoying and very faint.
If you don't mind me asking, why did you give up the B&B if it almost didn't drone, while giving a good sound? Did it still drone more than the Fabspeed?

I was offered a Borla in trade for it and wanted to try another. Looking back after a month I felt like a fool but, I decided to try another with the Fabspeed and I'm sold. Really is the best exhaust I've experienced and I'm sticking with it. The B&B and Fabspeed drone in the same spot but, the Fabspeed has a throatier more aggressive sound to it.
