Suprised to hear some of you are experiencing 'drone' with the GTA's. I've had mine on for about 10-12,000 miles & have NO drone with mine @ all.
I've been very pleased with them, nice mellow sound & no too loud @ all.
I am going to order a set of the Pypes mid-muffler system though, I'm real interested in this system,I'm old school & I'm hoping they sound like the old 'Cherry bomb' mufflers from days gone by.

Hi aircare,

The only guy with drone is NUKE, the guy with GT'snot GTA's. The Borla/FRPP GT"Stingers"are known to have a resonant drone.

HTH!

Sorry, but these do not drone. If you think they do, then you don't know what drone is. Also, mine came Fed Ex ground in four days. Just fine IMO.

any exhaust will be generally louder with a CAI/tune.

Yup, there is a considerable difference with a CAI, especially at WOT. Sounds wicked.

They not only sound wicked at WOT- I love the deep mean throaty gurgle they make at 1/2 throttle even more (if that's possible!).

Yes! to me with stock airbox and tune they sound like a mouse. The Brenspeed tune woke them up a bit but with very smooth tone. The B a m a torq tune gave them a louder tone and more grunt [sm=icon_rock.gif]

So here's the combo which worked best for me: GTA + FRPP X-pipe + Steeda/FRPP intake + B a m a torq tune
