This is where all the noise was coming from. The pipes were touching the heat shield on both sides of the car.
This sounds like an annoying noise, to be sure. But let's all be very clear here: this is NOT drone. This is NOT the sound that most are complaining about between 2000 and 3000 rpm with their aftermarket exhausts. (To other users; If this is the sound you are experiencing, fix it, by all means. But don't muddy the waters by calling this "drone". It is not. )
