I would try the simple and reversible (i.e. swapping in a test pipe) before attempting the complicated and permanent (i.e. cutting/welding something onto the exhaust). Especially if the whole thing is Ti; that will NOT be cheap to modify and will likely drastically reduce your resell value.

^^ this. You would probably be better off selling the exhaust as is and going with something different rather than hacking it up and trying to "fix" it.

Unfortunately, single titanium exhaust are never quiet or drone free. Like others have said, people's opinions of drone change from one person to another. Don't weld in a resonator. Your going to ruin the value of the exhaust. If you don't like it just sell it

okay so finally got around to getting a testpipe to match my exhaust.

All I can say is WOW! most of the drone is now gone, but I have only tested it around the back streets of my area. I will test it out on the freeway soon and report back.

There is an increase in rasp in the first three gears but I really like it no noticeable "smell" as of yet. so far so good

thanks to all those that replied to this thread
