Guys,

I'm sorry I'm a little late for this thread. As most of you know I also have my personal profile, which soon will be back to personal ONLY.

Paver (Lindsay) let me know what do you need, and I'll take care of you.

Regards,

Eddie.

Eddie is just doing his part to help the environment. Though I didn't think he had any Irish in him.

For those of you that have done this, how is the drone inside? Also, how loud is it compared to stock sides plus bypass?

don't know about drone inside, but at idle outside the car it sounds about the same

Eddie, I'll talk to you in a few weeks about them.

Drones. Pretty badly.

I have GMG headers, Eddie's "elbow" bypass, OEM Ti center. Below 3krpm the drone is borderline intolerable. Forces me to drive with windows slightly open.

When I had stock headers, side mufflers and center bypass there's no drone whatsoever.

The problem is not with the Eddie's elbow bypasses but the center muffler. A hollow chamber of that size is bound to suffer from resonance. It so happens the resonance frequency in the particular case of our cars happens between 2-3k rpm.

Then again, these cars are supposed to be enjoyed WAAY high up in the rev band... so maybe I just need to and drive her better.

What he said, it drones in low RPMs, up to 2800-2900 RPM, after that no drone.
Also depends on how ''perfect'' is the center muffler, the older it is, the worse the drone.
