just wondering if any of you guys are using a universal silencer on a 3in tip muffler and what you would recommend?
im not looking to make my exhaust quieter, but i am looking to restrict the air flow a bit. i noticed that with my ebc totally off, my boost creep is crazy. it starts to hit 7psi and it stays there under 4k, but from 4-7k it starts to boost creep to 14psi. thats a lot of creep! im thinking that maybe i can create some backpressure with a silencer so that the WG has less exhaust flow to deal with. i figure the silencer is cheap enough to give it a shot. im also going to test my WG to make sure its not hitting the 3in DP i have. so, post some silencer links guys and tell me what you use! -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Why dont you just fit a restrictor plate between the downpipe and the exhaust......a 2mm`ish thick ice of metal, cut to the same dimensions as the flange, with a between 2.25 - 2.75 inch hole in it...2.5 inch usually cures the problem...very popular with st205 owners with boost creep issues.
