    Crackles

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Haven't seen anything about this so I'm gonna start a new thread. I have had a custom exhaust set up for a couple months now: H-pipe in replacement for the baby resonators, straight pipe the center, and stock mufflers. Whenever the exhaust gets really hot it starts to crackle around 2k-3k and downshifts from 4K-5k. I'm wondering what I can do to my setup to make more crackles. It seems simple, but yet I'm not sure what I should do. Anyone's setup crackle?

    You're going to have a lot of rasp and crackle since you bypassed the forward resonators. Only thing I can think of to make it more noticeable is have the mufflers in the back replaced with aftermarket resonators such as Magnaflow.

    Pour some Rice Crispies in your gas tank. That should do the trick.

    Same, because just removing the center res and keeping the baby resonators was raspy

    my stasis exhaust crackles and pops on almost every shift up or down when its warmed up, my stasis also had its resonator removed but replaced with pipe. I have very minimal drone and have yet to hear a s4 around calgary making the same noise.
