My 4agte is too loud, any suggestions, HELP

Postby crnkin » Wed May 10, 2006 11:24 pm

Just got a full 2.5 inch exhaust on my corona, sounds really deep and good, but its way too loud for my liking. It runs a 19 inch coby and a twin drift style muffler set up at the back.

Obviously, having gone for a 2.5 inch exhaust, im looking for flow, the car goes really well, my only concern is the 5-0.

Soooo if anyone could reccomend a resonator to help me with this that wont hinder my performance much, please help, ive seens posts about flowmasters, are these good, how much are they, and where can i get one? Or something similar.

Thanks!

man i never knew u had a car that ran..... show us some pics :D

Im just using a Straight stainless manderl bent exhaust with 1 bullet style muffler :D its kinda loud but not as bad as I thought it was gona be.

I used to have on it a 2.5" system with 2x 19" long resonators that had expansion chambers built into them with the bullet style muffler and it was perfect!

haha its only been on the road for a week or so bazda, when you work 100+ hours at uni and make 190 a week its hard to have the car you know you can build!

click that link to see more details, its down the bottom. I took it out last night and was running 8 pound, its so scary for someone thats only ever had a 4k with a locker!

i think maybe what makes it bad is the twin tips, when i put my foot over one of them, it sounds heaps better....... But keep the ideas comming!

Man, I love your style. No, I really genuinely do!

Coke bottle BOV trumpet.... Awesome. And at least you're proud of your cable ties.

Everyone has something to learn from this guy :D

Aw you guys are the best. I think this year ive really had a motive to do stuff, and if cable ties are what it takes to mount a front mount so be it.

Mega hack. I like it.

Turbo's make good mufflers... just put another turbo about halfway down the exhaust - just plumb the output of the compressor into you ventilation system, you will never have fogged up windows again.!

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!

so back to the exhaust, is a plow master designed to be a muffler, or a resonator? i found a 2.5 inch one on trademe, but does anyone know where i can get a new one from, or how much, or can anyone get me a deal on one or????

cheers for the comment, wait for lowering, then itll be g'd up
