i bought midpipes with resonators from Rennart.
I actually bought the whole exhaust so i could change as well the xpipe.

+1 i have the catless RennArt exhaust with the resonated midpipes with catless DP's and there is barely any drone (a little between 1700-2k rpms) and it is not loud at all!! I love it!!

I thought it was the vk dps but even after getting catted dps and resonators still a tad too loud for me. Not ricey high pitched fart can loud but nice low ' watch out I'm hiding speed' rumble. In the end the dps had very little difference in sound for me. It was more the rear cans that made the difference.

In your case if you find it a little loud now, yes it will amplify, but not huge. If you are ok now, you'll be fine with the catless dps

I am actually happy with the sound of the exhaust system now and I think its not loud at all, if your saying just a tad bit louder and deeper, than I am okay with that...I was just about to revise my order and get the catted ones!

If you really want to get rid of drone then put in some HFCs.

craig is 100% correct
