Mufflers?

**BigBearWest** · 08-27-2003, 11:56 PM

I was wondering how you would go about making a muffler more quite?

**Weapon_R** · 08-28-2003, 12:08 AM

adding resonators

**BigBearWest** · 08-28-2003, 12:10 AM

hmmm That is the only way ok. do you know how much it woul be? and what size i should use? i have an apexi n1 with 2.5 stright pipe

I think a resonator is about $65 installed, or if you have any welding skills, you could pick up your own resonator from cdn tire for about 25-30 and weld it yourself.

would adding more resonators affect the power of the car?

Can you use one of these?

at a cost of sound quality and loss of power

**GTS Jeff** · 08-28-2003, 05:50 PM

the cost will depend on the kind of resonator u use. u can get a huge one at carline for 100 installed.

**Eric Happy Meal** · 08-28-2003, 07:13 PM

use a silencer. easy to take out and put back in

and also id suggest a difference muffler, that one might advertise more HP, but your torque is going to suffer because of it, which is what really makes you go faster, not hp. and since you dont like the sound of it you could sell it then replace it with a better sounding one.

**BigBearWest** · 08-28-2003, 10:18 PM

i ended up puttin in a resonator in, it sounds why better now. about the tq i will be change motor and will be needing 2.5 piping.
I did end up going to calgary muffler wicked job and very fast too

Are you boosting your car? or putting in a V6/V8?

??????? i wanna know too!

**Ben** · 08-29-2003, 07:48 AM

no, if you get a good quality high flow resonator it wont affect the power in a noticable means at all...
