Default educate me on ..

i currently have corsa indys with an x-pipe

I am considering the b&b bullets or borla stingers

how will they sound with my x-pipe? Do they have drone? I have basically none with the corsa.

I really do not want to change if i will end up with the harmonic hum

please let me know how yours are for you

Had B&B bullets, it droned but usually in the RPM range I did not drive. If you have a M6 you can drive around it. With an A4, drone will be there.. alot

Switched to something else to appease the wife.

For any drone the B&Bs have it is MORE than made up for in WOT happiness.

B&B Bullets - DTE Long Tubes, Hi Flow Cats, X-Pipe, and Heads & Cam swap...

Drone? What Drone?

In fact, I don't hear much of anything these days...

My Stingers didn't drone at all with my stock C5 and H pipe until I added LT's and it started droning horribly at normal highway speeds. You had to go above 80mph to get out of the drone range, and that wasn't acceptable to me here in CT, the land of $$$$$$$ speeding fines.

The z06 ti's done drone a bit even with LT's, heads, cam, and intake.
