Reducing Droning of AAM shortail pipes

People talk about the "droning" this mod has. Well yeah it has some drone if you drive around at 3.5-4k rpms, but who really drives around in that rpm band? Even at 80mph down the hwy there is no drone if you drive in the proper gear, I guess if you hang it in 5th and cruise in that area, then yeah there is some drone, but again, why would you cruise in such a high rpm range when there is another gear to drop lower into?
