We have the same set up now. Thanks kb24forlife24 for the help.
Lets hope the drone goes away like you said.

can you upload pictures of your setup and a video . I think your pipe is too big . check this out and look at the chart. looks like 2" is best for your application .

I run dual 2.5 on mine with no issues. I have shorty headers, x-pipe and 2 vibrant resonators.

Drone
How's the drone? I lost significant low end torque from the loss of backpressure. Might try adding the resonators and see if that helps at all.

MBWorld Fanatic!
If you're configured the same as KB24 it's hard to imagine that going from a 3.75" mid pipe to two 2.25" pipes would cause "significant" reduction of low end torque. But then, "significant" is relative.
You may have another issue; maybe a clogged cat.... ??? In any case, I would be surprised if adding the resonators back would help. Let us know if that proves to help with the issue.

i have no drone, its loud though.
i dubt its a back pressure issue, doing our car gave better throttle response and made it quicker even in the 60ft which is all torque
