Exhaust - quiet'ening

Postby Santa'sBoostinSleigh » Tue Jan 17, 2006 12:58 pm

well im finally ready to get rid of my POS integra, and am a bit worried that it may get stung on the exhaust bizzo

its a 1.6 SOCH non-vtak so not a hard-core POS, just a general POS.

it has a 2 1/4" exhaust
16" super coby muffler
super-turbo muffler
bling oval tip

anyway what i want to know is if i add a short piece of smaller diameter pipe somewhere in the exhaust, or just cut and weld in a restrictor plate, will this quieten it down?

reason being is i dont want to spend unnecccesary money to fix it cause im selling it, but i dont want it to be super rangi, and also dont want the buiyer to get fines (i am a nice guy :) )

How bigs the tip?

Cutting down the tip size is probably the cheapest and easiest way in queitening it down

Steelo has been a P TOWN favourite for years, suggest its has better longevity than socks but big ups for cracking me up!
currently beating - AE101 Sedan, blacktop/6spd, tein coilovers, braided lines, cup holder, and every other bloody thing possible.

What i did with my civic was steelo too. I had a 3 inch RPS on it so i took the removable silencer and welded a piece of thick mesh with large wholes onto the back of the silencer then stuffed steelo in there and it shut that baby right up...
