The NPP option isnt that important to me and drone never has been a issue with me either, I dont even no what drone is and Ive had alot of crazy exhaust systems over the years so, odds are they had some drone, just never bothered me. Anyway, Id buy the Borla.

Still the AFE didn't have any reported drone, and at least from youtube, it seemed to sound the best. Borla is hands down one of the best in the game, but I've just never like the sound.

When looking into an exhaust at first I thought it had to be NPP just because I felt that I would be hacking/ghetto rigging the car otherwise. With some folks having trouble with the valves rattling, sticking or not closing completely I’m not sure I want to bother with it. Pretty sure listening to the Hooker Blackheart system put me off on these aftermarket NPPs. Take a listen to this at :45. WTF is going on there? Sounds like the valves are opening and closing constantly. Straight ass. All Blackheart videos sound the same so it’s not a one time fluke. Anywho, leaning toward AWE myself.
