just got a new magnaflow exhaust system with no resonator. they told me it would be a very low tone and not too loud without a resonator. yea it was a nice low tone but a sort of LOUD low tone. i dont kno if its just me but i thought it was loud. and now im thinking of adding a resonator. i want it quieter but not too the point where it sounds like my stock exhausts. what would you guys suggest the length of my resonator should be to have a quiet but not too quiet tone??

 

22

 

would 22 inches cut down the sound more than half?? cause i think i just want the sound to cut down by half

 

half no. ill sell u my stock muffler if u want it, that would be your best bet unless u want like a 35" resanator

 

what size would cut it down by half then??

 

i just added a 18" resonator and man it just cut the sound off of my muffler. it sounds completly like stock and now im mad again. i thought 22 wouldnt make it quiet as much since most people recommended it but then a smaller 18" dropped the sound dramatically. are there any smaller resonators than 18??

 

do you have any pics of the pipe? i have a skunk2 exhaust and its LOUD! and i was thinking of add a resonator.

 

i could go take some for you soon if you like...does anyone know if there is a 14" resonator or 12" or anything like that?

Does anybody knows if adding a resonator in the place of the cat would quite the noise down?? and at the same time maybe free up some HP???? if yes aprox how much noise reduction??? thanks any feedback would be great

 

yes a resignator will cut down the noise level, but honestly if you put a magnaflow on your car you are really not trying to be that quiet. i have 3" down pipe running through 3" k-teller to my magnaflow without any resignator. it is loud when you get on it but compared to my apexi n1 i had before it is tons quieter.
