muffler delete drone!

I did a muffler delete on my 2016 Camaro ss non npp but the drone from normal driving is to much. I just want to get some mufflers maybe to put in that wont reduce the sound level to much but get rid of or reduce the drone and give me a nice rumble any ideas on what to get?

I've never heard of anyone complain about Borla mufflers droning.

MBRP has an awesome design with a J pipe that cuts pretty much all drone but is loud when you floor it. Check out their axle back.

No they don't. I wrote MBRP and they said at this time they are not pursuing a Dual tip exhaust for the non NPP guys.

I bought my 2016 used with 9,700 miles in late August last year.

The previous owner had done a muffer delete and installed Wicked Flow exhaust tips. To me, it sounded like crap and loud in the cabin. The car has the NPP set up and I have no idea what the owner was thinking to do such a thing.

So, soon after I got the car, I cut off the Wicked Flow tips and installed the Borla S-type axle backs.

Turns out it was a hack job with the Wicked Flow tips with the install technique and with the welding. I am so glad I removed those things just for that reason alone.

Now the sound is so much better, the car sounds like a muscle car should sound instead of like a truck. And the cabin is so much quiter as well. No drone.

Of course, that all changes when you put the hammer down! But even then it is not obnoxious.
