Is there any highway cruising drone with this system at between 2-3k rpm? I really would like to get a lighter system but I do enjoy the stock sound when you jump on it and how it is very quiet cruising on a long trip

Hi @oc-boxster,

Nope. No drone! Since i use my car for work too, I was worried about that. Did not find ANY drone at all! In fact, you will not stay in that section of the RPMs since the exhaust note is such beautiful MUSIC! You will find yourself stepping on it to hear the symphony out back! REALLY pleased with my setup now!

@JD,
I thought you were getting all the love you could handle? You're right tho, IF there was only a way to get a PIECE of the action!

HECK YES THERE IS DRONE AND CABIN RESONANCE at 2-3k rpm. You'll be upshifting to get away from it in town. Top down its not bad, but top up its deafening to me.

Of course, I have the larger Che headers and this may make mine louder than other guys with stock headers...
