From the research I've done, there's for sure no doubt with the old OEM mod method. The only thing I'm concerned about is whether I'll be happy with the volume.

I can only assume that the ACM method is extremely loud during cold start up?
It's with windows down. It's definitely louder but nothing as lound as an SS Race or Ginitani.

Problem is "drone" to one is "no drone" to another. Peoples hearing is notoriously different
There is a hum when my foot is on the gas slightly, but I don't consider that drone. I consider drone to be an annoying bass inside the cabin, none of the sounds so far have been annoying. But you're right it's different to everyone. Well if anyone is in NJ and want to hear it. Give me a shout
