Default HKS exhaust drone

Does anyone know how to get rid off the HKS hi-power exhaust drone? I had this exhaust for like 8 months and it is beginning to annoy me lol

if you didn't re-install your resonator, you MIGHT want to start with that.

To anwser your other question, my Greedy does not drone. I find it to have the perfect sound. I would say the sound level and pitch is between the HKS and Tanabe.

silencers will help, but you could also put a piece of dynomat on the heat shield above the muffler and it will quiet it down bit
