Default Newbie but proud owner of 2012 isf. Exhaust questions

So I got my car in April of this year 2016. So far I've done muffler and primary and secondary cat delete to give it more sound. But it's just noise not really any sexy v8 exhaust note and a retarded amount of drone. So I was thinking about doing ppe headers with a Hayward and Scott exhaust. Does anyone have that set up? If so can you tell me how the drone is and loudness please? Also if anyone in Ontario that has the H & S exhaust could you tell me the shipping cost please? And is anyone in on this forum in Ontario? Thanks guys

I have the H&S exhaust, stock headers, Joe Z intake & aFe filter

this is what it sounds like

ignore my stupid voice
Now that I've had it for a couple weeks now I can say it definitely improved the sound altogether. It makes barely any noise when you're cruising / coasting and at 2k revs you can hear the humming noise. 3k+ revs is when it starts to sound really nice. So it definitely won't hurt your driving experience if you daily drive your F. I still hear some droning but it's not nearly as bad as the stock drone though. I do plan on getting headers this month so I'll keep you updated once I get those. I believe the headers would eliminate the little drone I have left and luckily for me emission tests in Ohio aren't required.
