Spent the last 3 evenings putting Rattletrap Extreme sound deadener and heat shield in my car. I can't overstate how much I hate doing shit like that.
Therefore I am next going to put down a 1/2" foam sound killer from McMaster Carr that is supposed to be the shit. Hoping to make the road noise and resonance from 3" exhaust minimal in a 50 year old car. Wish me luck. |

I've got the latest version of an active exhaust on the market and I can still hear the drone. How do you eliminate drone?

I have to wonder if your car has an x-pipe in it or if the aftermarket exhaust systems do. That usually will eliminate most drone.

Yea its a bit loud inside but I have never had it very sealed up and its never had carpet or a headliner which is coming up. I have been reading and working on some good solutions and no this is just a hobby. Been working on cars since I was 15 so that's about 29 years now. Damn. |

Two separate straight pipes to the back. Muffler under the seats. Sensor by the wheels. Resonator after the sensor with about a 1 foot of straight pipe before the exhaust tips.

Chances are aftermarket makes it flow better and makes it louder but without an X-pipe it can also cause drone. An X-pipe should eliminate most of that. Its a fine line between loud and annoying. |

BRC - You might appreciate this, went to my Uncles last weekend and he has 2 challengers, an SRT Yellow Jacket and nice pretty red Hellcat. We get there and he tosses me the keys to the Hellcat and says lets go for a ride.
Sadly it isn't broken in yet, so still on the grey keys, but still at 500hp. He told me to come back next year when we can really lay some rubber. |

Can't imagine having another 200hp to control. How did it drive? You drive it in sport mode?
