Default Gibson exhaust

Anyone feel like you lost power after installing the Dual outlet system? And does the drone at cruising speed get any better if not what about some kind or resonator?

I had it on my 2009 and I felt a small power loss. Drone at 70 was annoying on long drives but around town and trails sounded good.
Put it on my 2012 and noticed a sharper power curve and a real different sound from the 3.6.
