Very good advice. I've been meaning to do just that. My passenger side allen screw keep coming loose every couple of weeks. Other than that, I like the Magnaflow catback alot.

I have magnaflows and I dont have any drone, they sound so frigging sweet

Anytime you have chamberd mufflers your going to get a drone, thats why stright through design mufflers like Magnaflow are so much better.

Whats the volume difference at idle and WOT? I thought I remember seeing an article in the NMRA race pages where they said the Maganflow catback was quieter at idle then the Flowmasters.

Not all chambered mufflers will drone. If the two mufflers are different lengths they won't resonate with each other and you won't hear any droning, like the stock mufflers
