2.25 Magnaflow Oval - Resonator or No Resonator?
I have a Magnaflow 2.25" oval muffler on an Apex'I Dunk Cat-back minus the Dunk muffler, 2.25" straight pipe, and DC headers on a H22. Currently, it has a buzzing annoying sound at around 2000-3000rpm and 4000rpm-up.
Now my questions are:
If I get a 2.5" Magnaflow oval muffler, would it be deeper? or buzzier? or louder?
If I get a resonator put on, Will that buzzing noise go away?
Any other advice? What's better? Magnaflow or ES oval? Whats quieter? whats the difference?

I'm suprised that the Apexi Dunk's resonator doesn't take that buzzing sound away. You might want to try a longer resonator.
Also, are you sure the sound isn't a rattling sound that may be caused by the heat shields.

<<< facing that "buzzing" noise right now.. hoping resonator will fix that.. and from what people have told me (one this board, sorry couldn't find my post *lazy*) a resonator will make it really clean sounding compared to what you have right now and buzzing will go away (I'm hoping at least ) hehe

Re: (Heisdan)
the buzzing could be coming from a number of things:
1) a clogged/half blown through cat (only if you have higher miles)
2) heat shields - just take them off, even the one on the cat
3) a rusted through resonator on the B-pipe (hard to tell)
4) a buzzy muffler
5) an older muffler that is starting to rust out
Good Luck.

very true.. so many factors go into why a car sounds the way it does. makes it hard when ppl ask: what your system sound like? well depending on those factors and if your running a testpipe, cat, gutted cat, all are factors: size of piping, turbo or NA
