I'd browse the youtube for sound clips of various cat backs, and check out our sponsors.

I have an 03 GT Convertible bone stock, and put those mufflers on and it sounded great up until 1900-2300 rpm. AT this range, the drone, to me, was unbearable. I don't know if a coupe would be as bad. I ran them for 30 minutes and had the shop put my stock mufflers back on. Maybe it's me and my old age. I do not have the money to try different systems, so it will stay stock for a while.

The Flowmaster drone gets old.

I have heard that Flowmasters drone a lot but I did not not think it would be that bad. Where I live, most of my driving is at 60-70 mph which puts me in the worst place, rpm wise, for drone on my car. I heard that the Borla Grand Touring has no drone at all, but at close to 800 dollars for a cat back system, I'll never know.

I may be the minority here but I'd don't mine the drone.

I have 4.10s and Flows, so for freeways Im just above the drone range.

I think the chambered mufflers will drone more than the straight through type of mufflers. Id check out a bunch of youtube clips and browse our sponsors for cat backs and read the reviews.

I think they sound good with 4.10. but drone with stock rear in town and what not. with 4.10 each gear has a short lower end "drone" range.
