RE: Does anyone enjoy DRONE?
I think the exhaust setup I get in the spring will be the following....
Kook's LT coated headers, with Kook'scatted X-pipe and MAC cat-back exhaust....I think this should give me a nice old school muscle car tone. Chime in if you think I'm wrong!!!!!

RE: Does anyone enjoy DRONE?
I have the Powerflos, drone occurs slightly at around 1700 rpm-1900 rpm. But only when doing a slow progression through the revs, other than that I don't hear it at all. None during idle thankfully. My last stang had terrible drone from my mangaflows.
Making sure you do the installation properly and the bolts are tightened enough makes a big difference between big drone and little to no drone.
Drone is just a resonance of the exhaust pipes during certain rpms. A perfectly installed/built exhaust and headers should result in no drone what so ever. So no, drone is technically bad if you have a lot of it.

My SLP Loudmouths have a lot of drone around 3300 RPM, I just shift if it annoys me. The only time it really annoys me is on the highway because it drones right at 80 MPH. In this case I have to speed up a bit, sorry officer the drone was driving me insane.
