Good intel. I was just surprised at how much drone the Borla S-types had considering their known for not droning. I also wonder if the catless long tubes have played a roll in exacerbating the issue.Drone is a product of muffler design / solution not the mid pipe. If you have a setup already that drones some the res delete will accent it but not create it. A muffler setup for no drone won't start to drone because of it, like AWE or Corsa etc. That said, the drone on the oem mufflers is minimal but the tone on oem after res delete was tinny and just awful. I think when I tried it originally soon after the purchase it lasted about a month before I had to scrap it for a full catback just due to that tinniness.
There are some resonated mid pipe options too that would tone it down some but again personally not a fan of the oem mufflers.
I'm now on aftermarket valved mufflers with two Vibrant resonators added to the H-pipe and it's definitely better than the S-types with no resonators, even with the valves wide open.
Attaching photos for anyone who cares to see my setup.
