Default true dual setup: comments please!

well looks like im going with a True Dual setup with cats/H-pipe/1-chamber flowmasters dumped. Will this sound good with the cats? Will there be much drone??

I have the same basic setup but with powersticks and it has absolutely no drone inside the car at any time. It's quiet when you need it, and plenty loud when you want it.

Check out ^^'s sig. He's got some clips of his setup and it's pure sex. I think his is catless, however. But you won't be disappointed...they sound awesome. Sometimes I wish I would have gone with 1 chamber Flows over my Dynomax Bullets...But I enjoy my race-car sound.

The only interior drone I get is between 1800-2000 rpms, everywhere else is great. With your stall you'd never hit those rpms unlocked and only be at those rpms at ~55mph with the converter locked.

You can adjust lockup speed in the tune to whatever you want. I've got mine set to not lock in 4th gear until 53mph.

If us cutout guys can deal with our drone, then no one has a right to complain.
