Droning has gone down a lot after 900 miles. And I have really gotten used to it now. If that exhaust note was gone tomorrow, I would cry. 
There is a mental "conditioning" period where you may get a headache or two but after you get through that it's awesome!!

That's generally what happens with most higher quality exhausts.
After some usage, the muffler packing area fills up with soot, quieting things down from the initial point.
With some of the cheaper exhausts (with loose-pack fiberglass), the glass actually burns off, making the exhaust louder.

I had a little freak out period when I got mine because I wasn't used to the occasional drone at certain RPM's. 
But it's all good now
And the drone has gone down.
And there is no drone for the 525i/530i anyway so you will really LOVE it!
