Haha i have grown used to it. It has definitely crossed my mind to put the stock exhaust back on though. It surprises me that the Descendant exhaust gave you the same problem though. I always thought it was milder. At one time I had a plan to swap for the descendant. Not anymore

yeah now that i am more aware of the sound and the sound level, i can def hear the drone with stock exhaust but it is much QUIETER! Whenever I hear the droning im thinkin to myself what a good idea it was to put the stock exhaust back or else IT WOULD BE SUPER LOUD!
some of my friends even ask me sometimes if its still loud/boomy in my car b4 they get into it to go somewhere

Just take off the snorkel from the stock air box.

Results: Better sound and More HP/TQ

Stock snorkel has a very narrow end

I was just driving and could not figure out why my car sounded different and felt a lot more torque'ier and responsive. Half an hour into the drive I remembered that I took off the snorkel a couple days ago

nobody is gonna waste a dyno run on such trivial ____

Just try it and you'll feel/notice the results

One dyno run is $80-$120....
