You yes you can get a lovely sounding exaust for $30.00....before you ask...No this is not a scam or advertisement. Go to your local muffler shop and get your resonator cut off........ ohhhhh my it make a huge difference it is not buzzy at all..... i did it and i love it and i think you will to.....especially for those without enough money to get the new muffler....

 

Will any muffler shop do it? Will it cause any damage to my <stock> exhaust? How about doing it my self?


RANDOM...Please advise <since you seem to be the most knowledgable person here...NO DISREAPECT to any other meant> smile.gif


Can someone post a diagram of an exhaust with say arrows pointing where to cut from-to?

I want a new exhaust badly..but -$$$ <says the wife> ;o)

 

The resonator is the long "expanded tube like" thang.



Sure you could do it yourself, if you can cut a pipe (straight preferably), and then install a length of pipe to replace the resonator. Heck you could even take the cut out resonator to your local exhaust shop, and have them create the proper length tube with the proper expanded ends. (expand both ends of the new pipe so that it will fit over the ends of the existing pipe.)

So is this reccomended? And is there any "performance" issue involved <bad issues>?

 

I wouldn't say "reccomended" unless you really want more sound out of your tailpipe.

This is just an "available" mod. In the big scheme of things, it won't help or hurt your performance, but it will make your car louder.
