I really do want an exhaust but I keep hearing stories of drone and I really like how quiet my cabin is at the moment. I am going to get a ported throttle body but I'm stuck at where to go after that.

Loud exhaust systems will drone. If you're afraid of drone, then the x pipe might be for u. I have a borla setup and have zero drone. It was quiet in the cabin. It wasn't until I removed my rear cat that I know it got a little louder in the cabin but its absolutely nothing. You have to be listening for it to notice. Setting the radio on 5 drowns it out. And that was only after I took the rear cat out.

Sounds good! I'll look into the Brola axle back exhaust. I'll check reviews and see how I like it and I'll combine it with a x pipe and it should sound perfect.
Thanks!

The borla axle back is a great exhaust. I made my own custom one though. Didn't want to pay the massive price for the axle back

on the drone and loudness...I have the V1's and BBK headers and it drones pretty good...I honestly don't care though.

lscamaro · 07-28-2013, 02:36 PM

Yea, some people don't mind it while others will want to kill themselves in it.

Lil' Nasty · 07-28-2013, 03:01 PM

Hey Jewel, were you still interested in the catch can?...going to post up a for sale thread later, i know you have first dibs on it.

kjkjr27 · 07-28-2013, 03:04 PM

The drone isn't too bad on mine and their isn't much rasp at all. I'm completely happy with the way my car sounds.

jewel25 · 07-28-2013, 03:04 PM

You can go ahead and post. I don't have any money at the moment.

menendez1293 · 07-28-2013, 03:38 PM

Normally drone won't bother me either. The one time it has was when I was doing 75 in 6th with no radio and with a headache before I even got into the car.

That really sucks. I normally don't get headaches but for some reason that day I did. All I have to say is the V2s did not make the drive back from Orlando a very comfortable one. Drone also kind of makes you want to doze off a little too from my experience

Mvp_Me · 07-28-2013, 07:10 PM

Drone wont kill me, my last two cars had it and I was ok with that but this one I wanted it to be somewhat quite.
There isn't much YouTube videos on the borla axle back exhaust though.
