Default are N1 catback exhausts too loud for highways

I was considering an N1 catback exhaust for my ap2. I do quite a bit of extended highway drivings and a few occasional roadtrips. This can all be done top up or top down. I was just wondering is it going to be too loud inside to bear at a constant 70 mph speed for an hour or longer/ top up and top down for warmerdays

There's going to be drone, although a test pipe helps reduce it. I had the invidia before and the drone never bothered me but then i like it loud

At 70 mph your RPM will be above the drone range. I've found that 55mph speed limits where I only go 62-65 I have to put it in 5th to avoid the drone.

But at 70 you can keep it in 6th and be golden
