I think some people are still confused as to what drone is. Drone is not a loud sound, if u have a chambered muffler get in your car, drive around at about 2500 then just let off the gas and listen to the sound you hear as the rpm's are dropping down especailly between 2200-2000 rpms and that is the drone sound. I LOVE drone, I think it sounds awesome. Sounds like I want 1 chamber flows because they are a bit louder and if they drone even more than my 2 chamber delta 40's do then I definetely want them.

You have any video/sound clips of your car I really want to hear the 1 chamber flows with the MAC O/R H, I've been looking for something that would be a little bit louder but not make me lose my nice deep chambered muffler tone also.

The reason a car drones usually is because of there is a resonant frequency in your cabin around 2k rpm. The two mufflers are the same, and will amplify this frequency even more. The way to combat drone is to have two different size mufflers that resonate at a different frequency. IE, a two chamber flowmaster on the left, a three chamber on the right. I don't know how this affects performance, but it should kill any drone. I think the Lincoln Mark VIII has is two different sized muffs for this reason.
