Default Quiet Exhaust?

Hi all,

I have a DC2 with an H22A. My exhaust was custom done, all 2.5" pipping.

My muffler is straight through and the noise is really getting to me.

I added the biggest resonator I could buy and it's tolerable now but I still find it too loud. I'm now looking at getting a replacement from axle back to hopefully reduce the noise some.

I'd like your opinions on a quiet make. I'd like to keep it at 2.5" but a tad smaller would be fine as well.

I've read RS*R and Apexi WS are really quiet but I'm having zero luck locating axle backs from anyone around here, word is I have to buy the whole system from cat back

Thanks all!

I got my WS used off of eBay for $200 shipped.

I don't know of any axlebacks.

Diameter ? I think it's ~ 2.25" right?

It's 60mm. I measured mine at 2.35" or so...

if the exhaust is all custom welded than an axle back, with the flange, wont work for you anyway.

I believe that Thermal R&D and Magnaflow both make universal mufflers with a range of inlet and outlet sizes and layouts available. And along with that big resonator either of these should sound quiet but still nice.

Let us know what you go with and how it sounds
