Exhaust Resonator Options

[DSToyo]

how much louder is it after you cut it out?

[playr158]

stock muffler or ricer cannon?

[DSToyo]

ricer cannon
its a ractive, but its not loud at all and its not high pitched at all either.
im just wondering, i dont want it to be too loud, i was told it would be anywhere from 25% to 40% louder than it is now

[rjbibeau]

more throaty sound but the resonator deadens backfires from shifts but whoop d too it sounds better

[DSToyo]

how much louder is it, is it abnoxious

[playr158]

it can be pretty loud lol

[DSToyo]

so itll be like twice as loud? just trying to judge it.
anyone have a vid or somethin?
i got a guy who'll do it for free, i just dont want to be disappointed afterwords. after you took it out did you like it, no regrets???

[playr158]

leave it in to start..(you can always take it out)
and see how you like it....sound depends on pipe size + muffler as well so we can't be sure

i had stock pipes, no resonator & a CF 2.5" straight through muffler
my friends could here me several miles away (no joke)

i HIGHLY suggest leaving in the resonator, if you don't like the sound you can always take it out later...

[DSToyo]

alright, i just got someone who could hook it up now
i got stock header and pipes and a straight through muffler that is not very loud at all btw

ricer cannon . Nice expression

[hitcachi]

leave it on. Trust me. I just have a straight 2.5 inch pipe with header right now and its absolutly ridiculously loud. Keep it on.

I just got my whole exhaust done today, 2.25 straight through with a RS magnaflow. IT's deep and nice, probably because of the magnaflow, but especially at night, it is LOUD, especially during acceleration. BTW, anyone knows where I can get a magnaflow silencer?

[rjbibeau]

now just gut the cat!!!!

[playr158]

you do know that with the increased amount of technology...cats are minimally restrictive to the piping and no reason to take it out....if anything just get a new cat....gutting is for ricers

i found out the other day my car did not have a cat or a resonator. it's pretty damn loud, and backfires often. after i put in a 10" long resonator, it lowered the volume quite a bit, and it also backfires a bit less now.

^do you like it better now?

i think im going to leave it in. its a lot easier to take out later than to have to put back in.
