Default Injen exhaust owner: How do you reduce drone inside the cabin?

I love the sound but the drone inside the cabin is really terrible. actually i dont really mind, but my girlfriend hates it =[

so any suggestion?

I tried to search
https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....ight=magnaflow

is that mean i just have to buy the magnaflow muffler and install it, then drone will be gone?

thanks guys

... I am in the exact same situation. I really don't mind it. I actually love going through the gears around town, but the girlfriend hates it! Driving with her in the car, knowing that she thinks it's too loud, makes me not drive as I normally would. It makes me conscientious. Know what I mean? I find myself trying to ease up on the gas and coast more than I'd actually like to...

I got rid of the drone by selling it and the only drone I get, now, is from my girlfriend.

I have the Injen SES true dual exhaust and I had the same drone issues. I had a local muffler shop install the Magnaflow x-pipe and it not only got rid of the drone, it sounds sexy! All the guys at my local auto-x club love the sound of my exhaust. I also regained quite a bit of torque that you normally lose by going with a dual exhaust.

Here you go. It should either be 11385(2.25d) or 11386(2.5d). Dont know the diameter size for the injen. I have the 11385 on my borla.
