I had been planning to cut out the stock midpipe on my GT and replace it with a straight tube for a while...since the weather improved today, I finally fired up the sawzall and made it happen.
Stock header, stock muffler. Sounds suprisingly mean. Here are the videos. BEFORE! AFTER! Let me know what you think! --------------------  do you know who i am, mr. worley? |

The stock resonator ALONE (minus muffler) works very well at muffling the exhaust buzz. The stock muffler on the other hand... ain't so great.

The stock muffler on the other hand... ain't so great. the tone is set by the resonator, the volume is controlled by the muffler. atleast it seems to be this way on the corolla/celica exhaust. well rather to clarify, the muffler just smooshes the sound pulses together into one small stream of sound through the use of chambers, baffles, and some fiberglass packing. a resonator just dampens high frequency noises by absorbing them with a packing material. low freq noises are not effected by resonators. thats why adding a resonator to an exhaust will 'deepen the tone' by removing the higher freqs. -------------------- |
