HitEm'Up

You can put a resonator in your system to help quiet it down or switch the exhaust to stock

Get a thermal 3". It won't be quieter but you'll be happier hehe.

what is a resonator and what does it do, and if you know how it works that would be great. thanks

dustin

It quiets the exhaust down. Imagine a silencer for a gun. Here is a pic of the inside of a resonator:

oh well thats pretty cool . and thanks for the pic. is it exhaust specific or no?? and do you know if they make you loose any power?thanks again Jon

no, not exhaust specific, because you have to cut and weld it in. . .

i have the greddy evo and it is very quiet. of course it will be louder than stock but it is the quietest exhaust i have ever heard.

i have a side exit exhaust on my car, with only 2 resonators like the one pictured above........

its fairly quiet, espectially compared to an NA car.

the T3 acts like another muffler.

greddy sp is the ****. BIG difference when i went from a 2.5 to a greddy sp. it was almost like stock, i thought something was wrong

also it looks like stock...or somewhat. very shiny! bling!

i got custom 2.5" exhaust with cat, straight through resonator and straight through oval muffler. much more quiet than most if not all aftermarket exhaust for n/a

use a cat, like a carsound, that will quiet it down alot
