checking your youtube clip, your set-up is much louder than mine.

I had another clip on there w/o the megan midpipe, it only has the axle-back with a magnaflow resonator in place of the oem one.

yes.
it's probably as loud as i'd like to be at this point. any louder, and i'll consider it overly excessive.
that's why i say my set-up is "barely acceptable" - because it's near excessive but not overly.

The drone did not go away, but the car is louder and noticeable sound wise in the higher rpms. With the Hipower exhaust, I'm pretty sure you won't be able to eliminate drone completely. It just comes down to whats acceptable to you.
