So I made my own exhaust on my GT. After the stock resonator i upped the diameter of the pipe to 2.25 then it goes into a long glasspack muffler then a downpipe just before the rear axle. I seem to be getting better gas mileage, so i want to keep my flow through design, but its so LOUD. I ordered 2 vibrant resonators I heard one is good and two is better and they are flow through. The question is....Should I build the system resonator-resonator-glasspack,
resonator-glasspack-resonator, glasspack-resonator-resonator, or just leave the glasspack out? |

ok i looked at my new "resonators" they are built similar to my stock resonators but they do have materiel inside. there is no echo if i knock on the outside of them. so according to galcobar's description they are actually mufflers. the real questions are: should i keep or lose the stock resonator and should i keep or lose the glass pack? ive also heard the glasspacks resonate as well but not necessarily in a good way. the stock resonator always made the car sound aggressive its just a lot worse without the baffled muffler. mabey it should go? is the glass pack making it worse?
I would love to try all the different combinations but i only have so much money and time. |
