Default Borla Exhaust

I was considering installing a Borla exhaust dual tips system into my JK. I am wondering if anyone has this setup installed on their rig, and if so is there any drone noise on the highway?

Is this a good brand to go with to avoid drone?...any recommendations?

Thanks!!!

I've got the single-exit, axle-back on my 2-door JK.

I like the kit a LOT, but I'm not sure it's for everyone. The exhaust note is very tame and civilized - some people say it's too quiet. I think it's perfect. Gives the jeep a nice respectable 'jeep sound'.

With a hardtop, the exhaust is extremely quiet. Noticeable, but quiet. With a soft top the exhaust is more noticeable. There is absolutely no drone at all. You can easily hear the (stock Infinity) radio with the volume set down around 10 on the highway.

If the goal is to fight drone, I would suggest either the stock exhaust, or the Borla. Perhaps a Corsa. I had one on another vehicle and liked it a lot -- but it was a LOUD exhaust.
