Default Anyone ever try a Summit Staintless steel muffler out? Quiet?

Im looking to quiet my exhuast down a bit- its a 2.5" catback ebay special. I like the hole ES oval style but am thinking about trying a summit muffler as they are alot cheaper- http://store.summitracing.com/...w=sku

Should i try this out or should i get a resonator?

That basicly *is* a resonator. Its a glasspacked (fiberglass can technically be considered ceramic) straight-through muffler. People usually run a normal resonator and one of these w/a turbo, and they aren't too loud. With an NA setup, it will be loud enough to get tickets, but should sound better than a cheap fart can w/resonator.

If you get one of those, you mine as well get a Cherry Bomb from Autozone for half the price.

and both will probably still be loud. Like my Magnaflow oval.

lol alright so scratch the idea on that muffler- are the ES mufflers really that quiet to justify the price however? I want my exhuast to sound like a RSR

I've heard ES Ovals and they're actually quiet. I don't know how. Well the kid had a B16 with resonators and it was 2.25 pipping so maybe thats why
