Default which exhaust has absolute minimum drone w/ cam

just wanting to know which exhaust has the absolute less amount of drone with a Longtube catted Y, with cam setup. Mine has a lil bit too much drone for my liking at around 50-55 mph. Thats the rage where i do alot of driving. TIA guys

i just ditched my TSP rumbler for an SLP Dual/Dual and I love it...i can have a conversation standing outside the car while it's idling, but it's still loud enough (and lopey) to know it has *****

The difference in drone is night and day and all rasp is gone. There's only two problems, the Dual/Dual is discontinued and it's too quiet for many people...and I'm guessing you like it loud since you have a borlamouth

$89 off Ebay shipped Hooker Aerochamber will do it right. I replaced my Corsa with the Hooker and I love it. No drone or rasp but very deep and sounds great with LTs Cat Y & H/C.

I'd have to say a stock muffler would have the least drone.

slp dual/dual is the $hit. LTs/ORY/SLP DD ===> no drone, nice deep rumble, absolutely zero rasp. best sounding low key catback imo

I like cams through true dual setups or anything that terminates under the car. just has that "tone".

the hooker is pretty quiet, but without cats, and a decent cam I think it might be loud enough for you.

i don't know what you guys consider loud but with the setup in my sig, my car drowns out the exhaust sound on my brother's '94 mustang gt with a 3" MAC exhaust system w/ hi flow cats - at idle, cruise and WOT

When i had my Hooker before the slp dual/dual I also had the torquer 2 cam and it loped hard at idle.

IMO, no cats, hooker and the cam in sig, people will definately hear you idle.

the hooker is VERY quiet with cats, you probably won't be too happy with it if you are keeping the cats.
