The exhaust is too loud after put hfc (sound clip uploaded)

ok, I have kakimoto exhaust with hi-tech y pipe (flex pipe deleted), and just put the xforce hfc last friday. The exhaust note is incredible sounds like a ferrari, but the drone issue is really annoying me when I'm going uphill or cruising at certain speed.
as for my current exhaust setup, do u guys reckon to weld two flex pipe on the y pipe or put resonator on the middle pipe to reduce the drone?
here is the setup b4 hfc

Once you've got drone, it's pretty difficult to get rid of unless you reverse the mod that caused it to begin with.

Adding flex joints won't help. A larger resonator in the midpipe might help.

More info on your exhaust please. Link to where you got it? Sound clips?

Is it this one?

OP's location is AUS, which I'm guessing is Australia, and I think the license plate says NSW, which I think stands for New South Whales, in Australia if I'm not mistaken, and they got easy access to Japanese or for us guys here "JDM" parts....Lucky for them huh, This is a very nice looking exhaust, and the HFC's I've never heard of, but once again it's probably off the Japanese market. Australia loves their Japanese cars, but good suggestion to add another resonator, I just hope that can be done without chopping this nice exhaust

If you want to hear exhaust sound clips goto G35turbo.com it has what your lookin for. I think my current set up is probably a lot louder than anybody's. Borla header's, invidia test pipes, and hks Ti tru dual. drove thur a tunnel tonightand it sounds like a NSX race car

or other way change exhaust to some quiet one like fujisubo or nismo?
here is the link http://www.nengun.com/kakimoto-racing/regu-06-r where I got it from.
I will try to get some sound clips in the following days.

yeah man, I'm in AUS. NSW stands for New South Wales.
u r right. It's easy to get all the *** parts but not for our car, coz still not much ppl mod their V35.
For the high flow cat is made in local. It's popular here as hi-tech. They all make in good quality exhaust at reasonable price, but I was surprised how expensive were those high flow metal cats. It's about USD$660 rrp.

There is your problem.
