Default wat to do to quiet my exhaust

how can i quiet my exhaust? its damn loud and i don't have a silencer and they are not made for my muffler. btw its a hayameXT1 with 2.25" custom catback. would putting a resonator in make a good difference in sound? i miss my stock exhaust and i don't have it anymore...how much would it cost to put in a resonator? worth it? noticeable differences? any performance losses....sorry all the questions....need sum advice.

If you get a regular glasspack or resonator it should be like 60 bucks (aluminized). It won't hurt your performance as long as it's got a "flat" tubing inside. In other words, the perforations should not protrude into the flow path.

change mufflers if you want a cheap way out. get one with a silencer.

I put a Moroso spiral flow "race muffler" between my cat. and muffler. It made a huge noise difference in my 3" thermal. It's still loud compared to stock, but without the deafening trademark Thermal resonation.

A turbo does a pretty good job of quieting the exhaust

add a resonator... the longer the quieter... you want a straight through perforated core. generally 20" should do the trick.

If you want to use the exhaust you have as a base, Dynomax makes some decent exhaust silencers...
