Installed a Flowmaster American Thunder Cat Back Exhaust

Hello all...

Happy Memorial Day!!

Real quick,

I just installed a Flowmaster American Thunder Cat Back Exhaust on my 2011 2ss...Need advice:

I love the deep grumble noise...however, I noticed allot of drone sounds at low rpm 1000-2500...Is this the exhaust? Any way I can fix the problem?
Do all exhaust have this problem....

Any advice is much appreciated...

Thanks

Will

All exhaust that's what flow master dose best IMO I love the deep sound they make. They feel like the ground is vibrating. You also need to get some Picts or even a vid now that you got that exhaust on there

Search the threads on drone,There's one here already and resent about the FM and drone. Get J pipes installed to kill the drone.
