My experience with mine (stock except the Corsa bits) is its only a bit louder when just driving around ‘normally’, not too loud and no droning.

Does get louder if you do some ‘spirited’ driving and get it higher up in the rev range, but not too loud (ie obnoxiously loud).

Are there better systems etc, yes in my opinion there are, ie valved systems etc, but as I have stated in earlier posts bang for $ its better than stock without being overly loud, or stupidly expensive.

Not super loud, it's audible. It definitely is not "wake the neighbors" or "annoy the world" but it is very audible while driving/enjoying. The way to get an e9x m3 loud is with an x pipe or test pipes. Corsa is great with stock x pipe/cats. I really enjoyed this exhaust.

I agree, although I personally don't love all the Alibaba valved systems since they just have so many issues with their quality and it sounds like a muffler mod or delete when open for way more $ and work to route valves.

I'll put it this way in terms of volume, if you hear the Corsa you may wonder if the car is still running a stock X-Pipe. Whereas with other systems like the Dinan, you'll be sure it's on a stock X-Pipe.

That's why if you don't want to mess with anything else and want a simple exhaust 'upgrade', it's hard to beat the Corsa. Plus the no drone is a huge bonus and a must have in my book..

Its impossible to capture the howl this exhaust has around 3700 under light throttle but it has lots of different tones through it.
Here's a YouTube short video I uploaded:

You can also hear it in this one I uploaded of my intake at the end it sounds amazing:
