So I heard drone today!!!!

I valet park cars, and I it in this one stick shift car with an exhaust job and it had the most intense drone to it. It's hard to describe. But when I heard it I knew!

Thanks for posting everything!

If you wan't to really experience drone, drive through a road tunnel at a speed where the drone kicks in (in most carburetted smallblock V8's I've driven with straight-pipe duals, it's usually around 2500-2800RPM just before the high-speed barrels open up) & you'll hear it reverberating off the walls and rattling your teeth, & see all the other drivers looking around to see who has the loud car.

With the stock system on my JK, the only time I hear it is when I'm outside the Jeep when it's first started from cold and the computer holds it at 1500RPM for a while to warm up; not particularly loud, but the harmonics are unmistakable.
