Any drone, partial throttle loudness I.e. Up a hill while cruising, etc?

I was running 3" perrin resonated, and their over pipe and 3" catted fp, ended up removing the catback cause of the partial throttle noise

I want to say there is a bit of drone but it not the irriatating buzz in the head/ear type. it just sounds like you have an exhaust. i am all about not having drone and being too loud. However, it personally does not bother me. As far as the partial throttle, not sure what you mean by that.

You guys really need to stop putting your cameras on the ground directly behind the car. Get about 20-30 feet back and off to the side a bit about 4-5' off the ground, like a normal person. Putting the camera so close overpowers the mic and no one lies down in that position to hear a car rev.

This will be my first post. Ordered my full 3in nameless exhaust(with stock header) back in december and it was worth the wait as far as sound is concerned. Installed last thurs night/ friday morning. Sounds ridiculous(awesome). My setup includes everything you could add on the DP/overpipe combo,midpipe, and 5inch axelback all in 3in. The header bolt closest to the header heat shield is a pain with almost no clearance to properly seat any socket/wrench between the 3inch piping and the nut. Even now i still smell a bit of exhaust. However, that is not what worries me. Whenever accelerating from a stop i hear a banging noise almost as if the engine is knocking coming from the front right of vehicle. I also believe i hear it at other times when already moving and accelerating but i cannot confirm. Whenever installing this was a tight fit especially at DP Mount point and where 5inch muffler touches flex piping on midpipe.

EDIT:
Loosening everything and adjusting it a bit fixed it. When i retightened the bolts to the stock header, i used an axle nut socket to jack up the flange to provide maximum clearance and then tightened it down. Got rid of my jack hammer noise. Thanks all and thank you nameless performance for making something badass.


EDIT #2
After a weekend of autocross and four hours of driving on interstate the exhaust rattles alot again. It seems i have to take the covers off and readjust again. It is rattling at front subframe under accel and at rear subframe all the time. I suspect that the midpipe may be about a half inch too long. It forces the left muffler into the poly exhaust hanger they provided melting it a little, That exhaust tip comes out further than other side. This issue was not there whenever i had just the catback.

You should probably get it back on a lift and loosen it up and start adjusting. When I had my Nameless 3" exhaust, everything fit pretty well the first time around. You definitely need to move the pieces where you want them before tightening.

You can barely hear from the video a true comparison, but I would say the complete install of Perrin 3" CBE resonated & Nameless 3" downpipe w/cat and helmholtz that the overpipe made the sound just slightly louder. However this increase also helped with it sounding more deep and mature. I'm 100% happy with the combo!

that sounds awesome. i definitely want to go the same route but am afraid of drone. if you don't mind, could you upload an in cabin video at highway speeds whenever you get a chance. i'd really appreciate it.

Attached is the in-cabin sound. I drove on the inner roads and then on freeway.
You might have to turn your volume up to hear the exhaust. But like I said its really not too loud.
Also, just so you know I also have the perrin 3" intake bigmaf. Which is the growl that you hear. Sometimes I almost thing the intake is louder that my exhaust system.
I want to say about 5 mins in is when I closed my windows but I can't remember.

thanks for the video, i really appreciate it. sounds great, not too loud inside and no noticeable drone. your videos convinced me that this is definitely the setup i want. now its time to save up.

Unbolt passenger side engine mount, jack motor up 2-3 inches.

I did.
Even loosened the driver side as well and took off the black sheet cover.
Still no luck. Been at this for an hour now :/

Take off the heat shields yet?
