Aftermarket Exhaust & Droning

[Whos ur dadd]

I had a certain aftermarket exhaust for a Miata. I am a little deaf now because of a certain drone at 3000 RPM. Switched to another performance exhaust from Racing Beat. No drone and all was good.

Is there any droning whatsoever with any of these systems: Magnaflow, Draxas or Vibrant? I mean ANY droning. I don\'t want \"slight buzziness at xxx RPM, but I just don\'t drive in that range...\" crap. No drones for my poor hearing. My ears ring when I think about that dang first exhaust.

Louder and deeper tone. No drone! Experiences?

Your noobiness is excused.

It\'s a constant humming sound coming from certain performance exhausts. A certain resonance which is quite irritating to the ears. It usually happens at a certain range in the RPM. It really ruins your enjoyment of a car, IMHO.
