Mid pipe to reduce drone - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Beamer · 02-13-2020, 11:04 PM

Hi

Picked up a used nameless axelback exhaust. 2.5 inch inlet and 4inch mufflers. Been used total around 15,000km. It sounds really good outside the car and growls like a wolf but there’s drone in the car around 1500-2000rpm. Rest of the exhaust is stock. Would changing the stock mid pipe to something else with a bigger/better resonator reduce the drone in the cabin? Would you recommend anything else? I don’t plan to add anything else to the exhaust. I only really drive city so if anything I’d like to push the drone to higher rpm

Thanks

The stock mid pipe is resonated. I would recommend adding a better resonator to the stock FP if possible. I remember when I had that axleback with the stock header it was boomy and droned

Get the Nameless FP/OP Catted and Resonated. It cut pretty much all the drone from my setup which only came back after I installed a header lol. I might be selling mine if you're interested.
