just got my mandrel bent custom 2.5 inch exhaust put on today...14-16 inch resonator with a hks hi power muffler....heres my question....**** is LOUD.......lnot ricey....just very deep and loud....i went down toe nglishtown tonight and i had the biggest headache coming back....would installing another resonator help out? i searched but nothign really answered....the turbo is going on the end of april...will it quiet it down a lot or not really? someone help....will adding a second resonator hurt the flow? pleeease

 

the turbo will quiet the exhuast ALOT.

best advise i can give you is put your stock exhuast and cat back on the car, if you can.

headaches suck

this is true

 

well im growing to like it...i think i mite just get the silencer till the turbo goes on...and then go from there..thanks guys

 

haha stop complaining... mine is loud, 3 inch DP + 3 inch exhaust with no resonator, just a 3 inch magnaflow muffler.

stop crying lol your car cant be that *loud*

 

you can always put the stock muffler back on until you get your turbo

 

since i got my motor mounts, i have suffered some hearing loss on the highways. It doesn't bother me anymore, obviously because of hearing loss, but its that steady state drone thats just ******* loud.


First time after driving back from berkeley, 1 day afteri got the mounts, i had just pulle dinto my car and let the car idle for about 2-3 minutes, then i turned it off and boy my ears were just ringing. Dead silent garage at like 12:00 at night, and i'm sitting there along going "wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowoooowooowooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

I hate it too

 

i dont get it...your mounts made your car louder?
ive been getting a lot of compliments on it...and i really like the craftsmanship...i think what im going to do is just get a silencer put it till the turbo is on...and go from there....its a very nice deep sporty tone....no raspiness or scratchiness....i lost a little torque i think as a result of less backpressure...but soon that wont be a concern....well thanks everyone
