I don't think so, but you can build your own:

Every exhaust has drone,even the OEM,just a matter of it is noticeable or not.

Come on now, don't be like that. Everyone knows what I mean. Obviously I was referring to noticeable cabin drones.

PSE...definitely,positively no drone(noticeable drone=it's all relative- but almost all people who has the PSE system can/will attest to that, myself included). IMO, the louder you go, the more chances of increased drone. The Pedro exhaust hack does NOT have the same sound of the original PSE(check & compare in YouTube). The Pedro hack is waaaay louder than the PSE. GBP=500./ AU= 1,115.00 for 2 bypass hack pipes is asking an Arm and a Leg.

Agreed with every exhaust has drone.

Your stock one does, its just not loud/annoying.

Im not 100% positive about this, but fabspeed is supposed to have little drone because the two mufflers are connected to one another.
