    I think you are misunderstanding me or don’t know what actual drone is. I straight up said it only sounds ok in my original post. I’m not crazy about the sound. I said it doesn’t drone. Doesn’t have anything to do with how it sounds. There is no such thing as a natural drone - drone is a specific humming resonance that is effected by the bends and length and size of the actual exhaust (it’s created by the exhaust piping and muffler) it has nothing to do with how many cylinders a car has. Maybe you have something else you call drone, idk. You can make an exhaust for any car that does or doesn’t drone. Some companies like Corsa (which I have had on several vehicles because I am super sensitive to it) specifically make exhausts without drone. The TRD exhaust on the Tacoma doesn’t drone. If it did I would have taken the thing off my truck.

    Mostly dust and dirt.
    I don’t really care about the sound. I was wondering if it increases power.

    Fuck yeah it does. Says it right there. Gives you an extra 10 bars of power plus a lightning bolt.

    Just installed borla S-type on mine, love it. No drone and sounds great! Exactly what i wanted. Half the price of trd exhaust.

    Not worth it for power. I don’t notice much of anything at all with that and the trd intake but the sound is nice. Not loud when cruising but if you give it some throttle it comes to life and sounds great. Power no, sound yes. If Trd does another huge sale then yes

    So my coverage might go up! I could use a few extra bars with the crappy iPhone reception

    Yeah, this thing cost me a small fortune, but i love it more everyday.

    Was driving my 2007 ranger for the longest time to try to save some dough.

    mainly for aesthetics and moderate sound, sounds great when shifting, other than that, nada much. Enjoy
