it was loud when i had just the cat and muffler quieting down
i got busted by the sound police and got a fix it ticket</div>

I see, was it buzzy with just a cat and a muffler?

Did you feel any power loss when you put your glasspack on?

faithofadragon 02-23-2005 09:12 PM

Do you still have the buzz now after the cat and a glasspack installed?

I had high flow cat, 24" glasspack, 2.25" crush bent custom exhaust with a straight through muffler and it's very loud, but not buzzy. Maybe just a little.

I really don't want to have this freaking honda sound... it's very annoying!! and even embarrasing!!!

It is embarrasing. I am done with the strait though muffler......

Going to dynomax super turbo

faithofadragon 02-23-2005 09:33 PM

seriously get a super turbo
i sware by them they are really nice you will probably fall in love with it
it does buzz but i think that might be my lifter going flat
the resonator is really nice
all and all its a great street setup its nice and low toned keeps cops away and if you rev it people will know that it aint stock still

I really like the way my muffler looks. I've always wanted APEXI style muffler and this one is just perfect, so I won't be changing my muffler anytime soon(little ricer is talking inside of me). Plus nothing compares to performance that a straight through muffler can offer.

As, long as I will get that buzz out of my car I will be very happy.

obx 4-2-1
carsound cat
thrush glasspack
mandrel bent 2.25 pipe
dynomax super turbo

between idle and 3000 rpm you can bearly hear it</div>

Wow, that's my exact setup too. Although I have a Bomz CAI with K&N filter.

I started with the Dynomax Ultraflo SS, which people on car forums said wasn't any louder than the Super Turbo. This is a lie. It was so freaking loud...I could set off car alarms even when I barely gave it gas.

So I switched to a Super Turbo, the 14" one. Much quieter, but still loud enough to get noticed by the cops, and also still somewhat buzzy (header), which was annoying. Added a Thrush glasspack, 30" total, probably the same size you have, and that made a huge difference. Got rid of a lot of the loudness, all the buzzing, and some of the drone.

Unlike you though, between idle and 3000 rpm I can still hear it, it's a deep basslike growl, and I get a bit of resonance in the cabin between 2500-3000. At WOT it roars, all the way up to 6k. But at cruising speeds, if I don't let the engine drag, it's quieter than stock. I'm very happy with the sound, although if it was just a tiny bit quieter...

My tip right now is a very anti-rice section of 2.25" exhaust pipe. Looks completely stock. But I might get a 2.5" resonated tip, and see if that quiets it down a bit more. It's also flush with the bumper right now, it should probably protrude an inch or so for less resonance.

faithofadragon 02-23-2005 10:19 PM

yeah its low between idle and 3k its bearly noticeable
oh and o.p. straight through mufflers dont really gain more hp ive seen dynos when someone had a straight through muffler take it off and put like a magnaflow and gain hp
