Default Quieter cat back

I've got an M44 with a Stromung cat back but I'm looking for something quieter without gaining a lot of weight. It has quite a drone at 80mph
Any good ideas?

It's all relative. I also thought the stromung was too loud. Especially with the package tray out.

You could have a resonator put on the stromung. I used the stock resonator and have been happy with the resulting noise.

I'll try that before I get something else. It has to come out anyway cuz it's hitting the floor pan somewhere; prolly where the OE is relieved

I have a remus and I really like the sound level. It's definitely not super loud but you can hear it when you get on the gas. There is no drone that I have heard.

Can't really compare it to a stromung, I haven't ridden in a car with one.

That remus has no sound level, lol. I didn't hear a thing when you were autocrossing!

And sadly, it seems to be the same way for my stromung hybrid. I had the wife pass me at WOT and I couldn't hear the exhaust.

If you want quieter, install another smaller muffler precat or a resonator.
