exhaust silencers Options

[lagos]

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!

How about fixing the creeping problem rather than restricting your exhaust? Why even invest in a free flowing exhaust if you are just going to cork it up? Sounds silly.

its a way to add in a cheap fix and to test if the exhaust flow is the cause of the problem. if i knew this exhaust was going to creep so badly, i probably would have done something differently, but its too late for that. the only real way to fix it would be to add in an external gate, and im not about to do that on the ct26.

Right because an external wastegate on a ct26 is just a silly idea and whoever thought of an external wastegate setup on a turbo with an internal wastegate must be a real moron because obviously turbos with internal gates won't work with external gates because the quantum leap fizzoromator device won't properly adjustumalate properly and then you'll end up with a craspy modular clamp that will totally blow your **** to pieces.

I should note that if you do an external wastegate setup that once you put another turbo on you'll have to just throw the entire wastegate setup out because it is somehow COMPLETELY depending on what turbo you are running. /n00bness
