Very mild 3" exhaust with No Drone

Need some help finding a 3" exhaust with No drone and neighborly noise level. On a scale of 1-10, I need something like a 7+ or 8 with absolutely no drone.
Anyone have this animal?
I currently have StainlessWorks, It has great sound but I cant start it up until everyone else in the neighborhood is up.
I have two neighbors one close and one down the street giving me crap about it.
I do respect peoples concerns.

A 7 is what you have now, I'd look at the Borla s-type, Solo, or MBRP. All three of those are on the quiet side, and you should tell your neighbor if he wants quiet, open his wallet and pay for some of it . This is also in the wrong section.

Does your stainlessworks system drone?

The Magnaflow competition series seems like something you might want to look into.

The Magnaflow Comp drones like no other. I have it, the radio has to be at 12 to over power it. The Magnaflow Street is another story. You can check out my build thread for the Comp start up. Your neighbor might get even more upset if you got the Comp.

An axle back Will not be 3", so just go with an axle back. These past 2 weeks, I've had 2 people choose Magnaflow on my recommendation, they are both very happy. Magnflow is a stand up company, they take care of their customers, and the quality is the best out there. OP, check out their street systems, those are the quieter setups, but are still low restriction. I wouldn't buy anything else for my car.

I've been told comp series doesn't drone. Did it drone because of headers or did it do it beforehand?

just add the j pipes!!!!!! keep your system, they remove all the drone!! think they are 150 from solo?? they simply weld on and any muffler shop can handle that, or yourself. plus the pipe ends our totally adjustable to fine tune all your drone out. system might be loud for nieghbors , that youll have to see. but most of them are anyway.... exept for solos complete systems
good luck

I have the MBRP 3" exhaust and it drones most of the time, unless Im in WOT, it droned even with stock manifolds and even worse with my long tubes. I would try to find one of those J-Pipe exhausts. But I like the drone, I dont have to listen to my wife talk!

My 3" is the only one without mufflers, so I don't speak for them as a whole. I have 2" headers with a 3" straight pipe with zero bends essentially, loudest thing you can get short of header dumps. Mine drones hard, I love Magnaflow, but I'll tell it to you straight. Secondly, as for the guy who said "add J Pipes"; he wants quieter for the neighbors, they don't care about drone. So, he'll need a new system entirely to quiet it down. The Magnaflow Street was basically designed for guys like the OP.

+1 on the insanely loud start up. I am also rocking SW headers.
