Over time they quiet down a bit and you get use to it as well. Also, the helmholtz resonators do work, it’s mostly for higher rpms at higher freeway speeds. I had a few systems with them (not on a v6).
Also, in my experience I have yet to have or know of any performance free flowing system that didn’t drone a little at some rpm... usually around 1500, which in my truck is very brief at slow in town speeds when getting on the throttle so it doesn’t bother me, actually kinda like it.
Anyways, before we take this off the table as an option, I think we def need more longer term testing and reviews from guys who install this.
The “it was loud, I didn’t like it, took it off the same day” review just isn’t enough.
I currently have the Gibson, going on about two yrs, I can give you a very detailed review or just say “it’s garbage” (which it is).

I've had magnaflow on most my rides over the years I'm not a stranger to them. I've had the TRD system on my 19 and did not like the drone. it came on the 20 pro so had no choice but to have it again.
I think part of the issue is they push the muffler closer to the rear axle and maybe lack of insulation is sounding off in the cab?? But seriously the pulsing constant sound should be "cool" sounding not be obnoxious. It's that bad. No possible way to carry on a conversation also. The trd and every other system was not like that on day one. Maybe I got a lemon and look forward to other reviews
