Exhaust Drone - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

GivoFrz86 · 11-21-2020, 05:39 AM

Hello, So I have a 2018 Brz Ts and I am running Tomei UEL Headers, Berk Test pipe, and the ft86 x Remark catback, and I have some terrible drone between 2-3k rpm. I was wondering what you guys recommend that I do in order to help reduce the drone.

You think if I were to get a high flow cat front pipe it would reduce the drone?

Look at these 2 options:

HKS Dual resonator or the JDL Ultra quiet FP. But in all honesty Stock FP will do it for free and you will not even notice the HP drop.

So my car has a pop tune if I were to put the front pipe back on would i have to get rid of the pop tune?

No. It will reduce the effect of the tune and might reduce the cat life a bit.

There are those who would suggest that no matter what you do to the exhaust (or any other part of the car for that matter) that it would be greatly appreciated and downright neighborly if you "get rid of the pop tune".

I have a 2019 with the same setup as yours. I had to get a 24inch resonator installed. The drone was really really bad inside the car. Now with the resonator it's more quite and you can actually enjoy it. Only down fall was you have to cut the exhaust pipe to add it. But i do enjoy the remark quad exhaust.

Do you still have drone but its quite and doesn't vibrate the car, or is your drone completely eliminated?

I have Tomie UEL, Miltek OP, Berk fast cat FP, the rest is standard OEM, sounds good. Trundling about it's pretty quiet, open it open it gets "sporty" without getting over the top.

At first I only had the UEL headers and Berk FP, and the rest oem but I didn't like it because it had no tone it was just subie rumble and it didn't sound too good, but do you have any clips im interested to see how yours sounds.
