quick exhaust question

[.::F[L]Y::.]

hey guys,

quick question....atm im running a buddy club spec 3 exhaust but im selling it to try out something different. the BC runs 2.5" with a fairly large looking resonator piping from the CAT to the Cannon. the cannon i think has a 3" inlet.

I was planning on trying this out, getting a muffler ie tanabe gold medallion or something similar with 2.5" inlet, and just getting the exhaust shop to make me up a custom B pipe 2.5" but with no resonator. The muffler itself would be considerably quiter than the cannon would. Just curious if this would work,

-would i lose power
-would the car be drony or farty without the resonator in the b pipe
-would it be louder than my BC.

thanks.

friend had a tanabe power medallion on his civic with custom b-pipe, no resonator, car had a metal pinging noise at high revs, sounded weird. with resonator, sound was deeper and still quiet

ive got a custom stainless on my car 2.5in mandrel with canon and no resenator, down low till 4-4.5k it is extremly deep and punchy, then above that this pingy buzz appears due to no resenators but i like the sound its crazy loud and suprises everyone... yes it sounds very similar to the nsx sounds like on the car dvd's when they go through tunnels!

it'll sound very rippy (if u get me), it wont sound deep or anything.

the pitch of the exhaust will be alot louder, sounds kinda hollow and echo-ey, and imo it sounds heaps aggressive.

had a straight thru no muffler or resonator on my mini cooper s, and it sounded like a monster even on low revs or idle.

a resonators job is to make it less droney, and deeper, and it kinda helps with db's as well. without it, it will definately be louder.

if u wanna test out what it sounds like, just unbolt ur cat back exhaust system, then start it up. it'll give u an idea (if u leave it running too long, your under carridge would most probably be pretty black/dirty.

2.25" b pipe and a spoon muffler will be good enough...don't forget a good extractor always does the job.

doesnt this guy have like a k20 in his bay. so 2.25 prolli isnt enuff. 2.5 would prolli be the minimum. Could prolli go up to 3inch with no hassles. But either way with no resonator will be extremely loud. I pray that you get the farty kinda noise becoz if you get the very deep noise your gonna get the biggest headache.

:oi heard he has a k24 in there.

[todaek9]

one says k20, ones says k24...which one is it?
i don't see any NA goes more than 2.5" though...
