quieting down my car
 
Would a stock muffler, and reducer from 3" to whatever that opening is, be a reasonable temporary solution to quiet my car down?

BonzoHansen 02-09-2010 12:55 PM

probably. what is in it now?

sweetbmxrider 02-09-2010 12:56 PM

stock muffler is rather quiet. think its around 2 1/2" ID

FlyingDutchman 02-09-2010 01:08 PM

why are you quieting it down ??

Savage_Messiah 02-09-2010 01:11 PM

right now pacesetters, bullet muffler, magnaflow catback. quieting it down... well I'll just say that that car's about ready to be back on the road, but I come home from work between 11 and 12 pm in residential areas where they don't like loud noises. Other reasons too.

Do you have cats on there too?

Savage_Messiah 02-09-2010 02:04 PM

cat is currently replaced by a bullet muffler... does it make that much difference soundwise?

What about looking into some type of muffler in the intermediate pipe.

Something like this:

Shouldn't hurt overall performance and still drop some of the noise?

A bullet muffler really doesn't "muffle" too much. Nothing is in the flow path. On my GP I have a manifolds, high flow cat, bullet, and SLP LM and it's very tolerable.

Find your self a use SLP Dual/Dual. Its very quiet and flows very well.
