Question single dumped powerstick

hey guys.. i need all of you running powerstick chambered mufflers to chime in and help me. my exhaust setup is pacesetter lt's, ory, and dynomax bullet dumped at axle. while i love the sound, the drone has seemed to get worse over time. this setup has been on the car for almost 2 years. i'm thinking of replacing the bullet with a powerstick. do you think that will help with the drone some? and would it still sound nice?

you might as well just add the power stick after the bullet and see how you like that

which bullet..magnaflow or dynomax? I have been told that the magnaflow bullets sound better/deeper than the dynomax and have less drone.

I dont have any sound clips and I have the shorter 3in magnaflow on summits site. Mine sounds real calm until I rip on it and then it sounds mean as hell. As for drone out on the interstate at 70mph in 6th gear the car almost sounds stock.

Its probably because its dumped.

Run it out the back of the car and it won't be so bad.

I have LTs, ORY, and a Dynomax Bullet (TSP Rumbler) but it runs out the back and I can barely hear it just cruising.
