: exhaust drones!!!
factorymx 01-11-2008, 05:38 PM this is gona be a poll for different opinions on how much exhaust systems will drone
EDIT: this is my first poll so this might take me a couple tries to get it right opinions would help. i did the poll wrong and now i dont know how to fix it i should of done each system with loud drone and with minimal drone.
Just installed a Magnaflow 4" exhaust this afternoon on my truck and the drone and sound is something I definitely need to get used to but what a difference in performance over stock.
Mad Maxx 01-11-2008, 07:04 PM I got Diamond Eye REAL DownPipe & Corsa Catless Muffled 4". I can barely hear it in the truck at any speed or RPM. I hear the Intake more.
But Boy-O-Boy is it loud outside!! :)
8100 Power 01-11-2008, 07:12 PM Mine does have a slight drone...
I'm use to it now though....
BudTX 01-11-2008, 07:38 PM No drone for me.
volumejunkie 01-11-2008, 07:59 PM No drone either....
WVHunter 01-11-2008, 08:03 PM 4" with 12" muffler and 6" tip, no drone, but I have not towed with this setup yet.
factorymx 01-11-2008, 08:45 PM i think its gona be almost a given with any after market system to get some droan while towing heavy i even get some droan with stock when i tow heavy sometimes
also since i cant edit the poll just use it to vote for what system you have so we can determine some of the more popular set ups people run on these trucks.
FSTDMAX 01-11-2008, 09:33 PM Corsa 4in stainless strait, loudest in cab out of all the trucks i've had. Might be loudest outside to. Not complaining one bit though, I love it!:ro)
BayAreaMechanical 01-11-2008, 09:47 PM 4" MBRP front pipe with straight piped 3.5 after and dumped in front of the rear tire.
Dront when the OD kicks in and I'm cruisin between 45-52mph. Doesn't drone at all anywhere else.
Magilla 01-11-2008, 11:25 PM No drone only a little louder in the cab (especially since deleting the cat or DPF or whatever you wanna call it). Way loud outside when on it:D
Jasondt2001 01-11-2008, 11:27 PM i don't have any droan either, I clicked 4" catback before I read the post... oops :)
factorymx 01-11-2008, 11:33 PM i screwed up the poll so we are just using the poll as a data base for what most people on here run for an exhaust. so you can just vote for what ever you are running or gona run
himaster59 01-12-2008, 04:30 PM I still have a completely stock truck and at highway speeds around 1500 rpm it makes a lot of noise.
CrazyDaze 01-12-2008, 07:42 PM I had a 4" Magnaflow turbo-back on my dually that had minimal sound running empty. But turn up the boost and haul heavy and it droned like a MF!!!
The mystery 4" turbo-back I have on this 2500HD sounds nice and has a very slight drone when hauling. Sure wish I knew what brand it was.
No more drone after adjustments today.
What kind of adjustments?
Dan L 02-04-2008, 08:09 PM No drone, even when pulling heavy or hammering on it.
Jason Duramax 02-04-2008, 08:14 PM Slight drone in 5th and 6th and light throttle. Low rumble at idle, moderate tone at hard throttle. Whistles good up and down for what it is. Added more sack for sure.
factorymx 02-04-2008, 08:20 PM after installing my 5" system turbo back there really inst any drone at all the only drone you get is when you are at about 60mph and the tc locks up and it droans untill you go faster but the drone really isnt loiud
N.W.Labman 02-04-2008, 08:28 PM MBRP (4") what drone , Hell even the wife likes it . If its to loud turn the music up .
rcr1978 02-05-2008, 01:42 AM Bully Dog here and it drones at cruising speed on the interstate 60-80 mph.
whitetrash21 02-05-2008, 01:53 AM some drone, straight pipe stock..... it seemed to becopme louder after the resonator was removed though. that, or i never noticed until then :D.... even so, still sounds way better than stock...
