I had a drone with HP manifolds, stock resonators, and stock Hemi style mufflers.
I removed the resonators and the drone was slightly better.
I then removed the manifolds and the h-pipe and added headers with two seperate pipes going from front to back and now no drone.

I have a Summit system on my Duster (Factory manifolds with 2.5" duals with Summit mufflers & talpipes) and since I changed the rear axle ratio (2.45 -> 3.55) 2 days ago the car drones so bad on the highway after a one hour drive I can't stand it.

Will try a H or X pipe first to see if that changes the frequency point.

One step forward with the gears, 3 back with new exhaust drone, new driveshaft vibration and new alternator howl at cruise rpm.



Update- Last night I finished installing the H pipe in my system and it worked great (drone gone) AND the butt dyno is telling me it picked up a few hp which surprised me considering the combo.

No more drone at cruise and the car noticeably winds up faster.
