Default Sorta of sound clip

I took a video of the river near me and I thought it could be used as a sound clip for here haha. I'm being easy on the throttle, drone in the cab is not that loud and not obnoxious inside. Flowmaster 40 series, no resonators and turned down before the rear end.

mine was like that just driving along at @45 also. It's when your cruising along on the highway at @70 that the drone gets annoying...

I really don't notice it unless I pay attention. If I got music going I don't hear it a bit. We took it to Ohio in august and the sound wasn't bad at all for 5 hours lol.

If the drone does bother you make the end parallel to the ground not turned down so the sound is not bounced off the pavement and make sure the tip passes the edge of the car by a couple inches...I have found that this will help "push" the sound away from the truck and reduce the "drone"

Momentary thread hijack :P
What's the best way to delete the first resonator? I have decided that it's little too quiet for me with my thrush welded.. no drone what so ever, I dump after the axle for now.

I don't know about that flowmaster, it definitely sounds a bit too loud inside the cab to me. And that's just cruising.
But I know some of you guys dig that.

Comon Man! First you spend a whack of money on a louder exhuast, then you spend a whack of money on a stereo, so you can hear it over the exhaust. Then you spend a whack of money on a CAI, 'cause it sounds better, then you add another amp, 'cause you can't hear the tunes anymore.

Then when you get home, you can't hear your wife complaining over the ringingin in your ears about all the money you spent!
