So I did get to do a little car stuff recently, I hustled up to Bristol Dragway in my IS-F to make a couple passes in the cool(er) air. I’m very happy with the time/mph, especially given that it only has my DIY muffler delete and a set of drag radials.

The car sounds great with the mufflers removed. How is the sound quality when driving steady speed on the freeway? Do you get a lot of “drone”? Can you still hear the stereo good?
Thanks! There is considerable drone at low engine speeds (1800-2100) RPM and under light/medium load. It was fine on the highway, but the low speed stuff was making me crazy, so I swapped in two small Magnaflow canister style mufflers instead of just straight pipes. It sounds even better now and the drone is gone. Good luck!
Impressive times! A luxurious 12 second daily driver, I love it! Good choice on the Starfire Pearl white!!!
Thank you sir, I appreciate the kind words!
