Drone? WTF you guys talking about? Maybe on an automatic because the RPMS are higher...

I had no drone with my stingers whatsoever.

I have the Borla Stingers, LG Pro Street headers, x-pipe, hi-flow cats and I just love em! I just turned 55 so maybe that explains why I don't hear any DRONE.... I just hear beautiful music when I start my car up, until I turn it off! Drone??? That must be what old guys hear! I've Never heard it, but when I do, I'll sell the car and get me a Caddy.

I bought my car used so I have no idea what kind of Borla set-up I have. Is their any way I can find out what I'm running? Maybe some type of code on the exhaust? Thanks

Not with 2 tips... it's easy! If you don't have a friend to help, then get a floor jack and a piece of wood that'll span the 2 tips but fit in the bumper recess.

Loosed the connections then jack them a little higher than where you want them and crank the fittings down.

Works nicely for me, but I've found them very easy to allign and keep alligned. I can even access the one clamp w/ the car still on the ground an dmove the tip up/down.
