The sound of the exhaust itself sounds like it changed slightly. Its deeper, which I like. At WOT it still shines though.

Im pretty confident that a longer resonator will kill all the drone, but its a question of space constraints.
So there are still drone from the system? Can you live with it during everyday driving? Is it more quiet now? Do you have any video clip? SRT told the bigger resonator will have zero drone. Quite disappointed.
