whats a good deep tone deep hum resonator out there? like a greddy sp2? I have ebay headers and a 5zigen full 2.5" exhaust with bottle type resonator (looks like an SP2). What will help it get deep? Right now, its not so loud but it is high pitched on the higher rpms after i had put on the headers.

Options:
1. remove catalytic make straight pipe (may get louder)
2. remove catalytic make straight pipe and add vibrant ultra quiet resonator
3. add high flow cat and vibrant ultraquiet resonator
4. just add high flow cat and keep what I already have the bottle style resonator

i tried searching and asking.. never got the answer. so i finally bought a magnaflow resonator. it should be here anyday. ill make a before and after vid asap.

i got it from performancepeddler.com

use discount code bestoffer4em .. it'll save ya a lot of money plus free shipping

thanks, ill check it out.

Theres a company called Vibrant Proformance, I've read that a few guys on here are running them and they seemed pretty happy with the sound. I'm not too sure for myself but thats what i've heard, and apparently they are pretty cheap too.

Vibrant.

whats the best one or length, type, etc.?

So the are the tube style resonators dampeners, and the more canister-style ones basically to virtually eliminate exhaust sound? I need some dampening action... but I don't want the sound gone completely. Just less of it.

Exhaust before




Exhaust after.. with magnaflow muffler and resonator



Damnit, it still slightly rattles.. its only noticeable in neutral and 1st tho..


but other than that, i love the way it sounds now. so much better..

the oval style will be quieter, but not silent on a n/a car.
steff and dustin started with a round resonator, and a magnaflow muffler, and the car was LOUD.
with the oval, its definetly much more manageable at idle and light cruising, and still sounds great at WOT.

it does sound better. thanks for the post


agreed, for some reason, my exhaust as of last few drives has gotten deeper on its own. wonder if it will go back to a higher pitch tomorrow.

What's your part number on that? I tried a search and they aren't pulling anything up for the part search by vehicle

go to that site, search part number and use these two numbers.

14415
14822

they should come up like this; MAG14415, MAG14822

Yeah, if you search for OUR car, you won't find anything at all. I went into the chat room and this guy searched and found the part #'s for me.

Thanks man.... those are great prices.

Hey noo problemo. do me a favor and pm me when you get it installed. i wanna see how it turned out for you.

or pm me your link to your post or whatever:D

Will do, probably be a week or so before I order em but I'll keep ya updated

I don't have any emissions laws so you dont have to worry bout telling me its against the law or its illegal. just trying to cut my time and money short rather than experimenting myself if any of you guys have already gone through this trial.

Looking at OEM diagrams, I did not know where exactly the cat on a 5sfe was. After upgrading to the ebay header I realized this removes the 5sfe catalytic because I see it on the stock header I removed. But if you are running a 2.5 or 2.25 exhaust, there is still this bottle neck of the downpipe. I'm going to try to replace this pipe to match and see how it sounds, from there depending, i will change the resonator. I need to look under there first if there is a 2nd cat for sure. supposedly there is a precat.
