dynamat did little to kill the resonance of my flowmasters. I wish that I would have saved my $125

thats good to know. i think i might hit up home depot tomorrow and see if they have any type of insulation that could double as a sound deadener or somehting like that.

i love the tone of the exhaust just the drone is rediculous, there is actually more drone than when i had the cutout on... if i cant find anything to deadon it i might just have to get different muffers which is more $$ i dont wanna spend on it

i layed a bunch down but what helped most was putting it around and in front of the vent gills, so buy a $20 door kit cut the square out and put it right in front....

Do you experience the drone only when in 4cyl mode or at 8cyl mode too? Just wondering cause I want to delete my resonator too since I removed DOD.

The best thing you can do to help the drone is tune out DoD. It saved my sanity. 4 cyl mode is nuts with aftermarket mufflers...
