                  add a second muffler (like a borla xs pro) between your existing muffler and cat, it will kill the drone. I have 3" exhaust and it's almost as quiet as it was with the stock cat and supersprint.

                  the guys getting drone are only having problems because they usually only have 1 muffler and no cat, the size of the pipe has little to do with it. Plus magnaflow mufflers suck. their ceramic cats suck even more.. :(

                    what muffler and cat would you recommend for a 2.5in. all the way back to a single in/dual out muffler that is loud but not riecy sounding?

                          sounds perfect to me! i would leave it loud but that's how i roll. i used to have no cat with a magnaflow and i would cream my pants every time i went under a bridge or a tunnel! but now with my cat back in, my intake is louder a 5k than my exhaust

                            I have a borla xs pro and a dynomax single in/out mufflers - they're under $100 each on ebay. as far cats, whatever you do don't buy a ceramic core cat. They suck. Mine (magnaflow) smells like egg farts and it's only been a few hundred miles. There's a variety of metal core cats, and they don't cost a lot more than the ceramic ones.
