I have the BTG cat-back dual on my 2004GT, and it also has that drone @ 2800-3400 rpm. Unfortunately, that's right at 75-80 mph. On 75 mph highways, where I spend a lot of time, that's a problem.
I even installed the baffles in the end of the pipes and am still very disappointed with the drone. I wish I'd checked the forums more before I spent the $500.

I find this interesting because it seems some people have this and others don't. I for one don't have the drone and even commented to my wife about this shortly after having the BTG cat-back duals installed. We had the radio off while were cruising to Palm Springs at right about 3000rpm and were able to hold a conversation at normal speaking levels. I specifically mentioned the comments about the drone, and we agreed that our car certainly didn't have this problem.
Yes, it does sound different than stock, no doubt about it. And no, I don't have the baffles installed. What's loud to one person, annoying even, may not be a problem for someone else - we all have different tastes. But this seems to be a different case - almost too extreme for it to simply be a matter of preference.
