just wondering if any of you guys are using a universal silencer on a 3in tip muffler and what you would recommend?
im not looking to make my exhaust quieter, but i am looking to restrict the air flow a bit. i noticed that with my ebc totally off, my boost creep is crazy. it starts to hit 7psi and it stays there under 4k, but from 4-7k it starts to boost creep to 14psi. thats a lot of creep! im thinking that maybe i can create some backpressure with a silencer so that the WG has less exhaust flow to deal with. i figure the silencer is cheap enough to give it a shot. im also going to test my WG to make sure its not hitting the 3in DP i have. so, post some silencer links guys and tell me what you use! -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

damn
well. i think a large part of it will have to do with the exhaust you have. an N1 "style" will sound different then a magnaflow would with a silencer. im going to try it, if it cures the boost creep, but sounds bad, i can aways try to somehow mount it inside of the exhaust, before the muffer. since im not trying to make the exhaust more quiet, just less free flowing. for 20bucks, it wont be the end of the world if it dosnt work out. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Your going to need the bolt and nut that holds the silencer in place so it doesn't come off. The silencer doesn't come with one, just giving you a heads up
