    So y exhaust is pretty raspy and Im looking for a resonator. I just wanted to see what you guys are using and what might get me the best tone? My setup is 3 inch turbo back with a pair of magnaflow 14819s. Thanks!

    Re: What resonator(s) are you runnning?

    I installed a 18in. Vibrant bottle resonator on the down pipe and it solved the droning I got when cruising around 3000rpm. I also have a Neuspeed system. Even with the resonator,it was still too loud for my taste with a test pipe. But I'm old...

    Re: What resonator(s) are you runnning?

    What do you guys think the best setup would be though? 1 before the Y split or 2 after?

    Re: What resonator(s) are you runnning?

    I think I'm gonna go with 1 before the split as long as it eliminates the drone. Just depends on how loud you want it Nhoj. Louder 1 before, quieter two. Your mufflers have to do with the noise level I believe.

    i was told by a custom exhaust shop that the closer to the mufflers, the quieter it would be. i put 2 magnaflow resonators after the y-split and it was deffinatly quieter, but still loud. i think on my new car im going to try 1 before the split.

    Re: What resonator(s) are you runnning?

    Thanks for the help guys. Im not to worried about how loud it is, its more the raspyness (if thats a word). But would the one before or two after effect that in anyway?
