Gray Goose is on a distinguished road
Default Mine as well

I have an older GReedy cat back system with the same drone. I ordered a baffle for the new RS systems and it didn't fit on my older one. I had a machinist buddy make me some bolt-in baffles and it is 100% better. I don't feel any power loss, but I am sure i cut out a couple HPs.

My permanent fix will be to turbo it!

So you’re saying you completely eliminated the drone with those baffles? Those are installed at the tips right?

Im with you on that permanent fix, a front muffler kit will really help

Installed Evo GT last night with ART pipes, holy, its insanely loud for a daily driver. Removed ART pipes and installed stock cats, also removed read heat shield, its actually drivable now, however drones from 3k to 4k at 20%+ throttle. Maybe just need to get used to it, will see.

If it annoys me long enough next going to try wither dyno mat or baffles.

It really is dumb loud, inside and out. I just changed to Fast Intentions resonated test pipes from the ART pipes and I honestly think it's louder. The drone isn't any worse(not that it could be), but I can really hear the cams now, especially on the E85 map. Idk what about these pipes make the difference, but there certainly is 1.
