Default Thanks!!

Hmm...so you guys could potentially have a tiiiny bit of drone with exhaust at 60, but none of you will be driving it that slowly on the hwy in any case.

I asked because of all the non-res people doing the exhaust mods.

The reason why I can sport such a loud exhaust is because of Audi's <i>awesome</i> sound deadening, but more importantly because of our gearing.

So it appears that at hwy speeds, we all rev high enough not to hear the drone (1800-2450 rpm).
