XR-1 round is more loud vs the XR-1 Oval

the Borla mufflers will have drone when crusing no matter what when there's no cats
If you want to get rid of the drone that you hear . . . put a dyno max bullet muffler before the XR-1

It gets rid of "some" of the drone but not all of it.

Something else, the longer the exhaust pipe, meaning the total length, the more drone you will have. So if you exit the pipe before the rear tire, vs a the rear of the truck, it cuts down some of the tone that you are trying to get rid of.
