Hi guys. Installed a fujitsubo power getter RS with a high flow cat today. TOO LOUD for my partner and family :(
I was thinking of getting a silencer, will a silencer reduce the alot of sound from the muffler? How much will a 4" silencer cost?
If i would to replace the high flow cat with the stock cat, will that reduce the sound from the muffler as well?
What else can i do to reduce the dB?
Many thanks.
a silencer should do the trick
i think the cost around the $100 mark
not too sure if changing back to a stock cat will make much difference
cheers
silencer, resonators, small cat will all do the trick...
resonator has always been the more popular and effective choice...
If you revert to stock cat and use a silencer btw, you'll basically receive alot lower gains from your Fujitsubo right? Fair bit of cash to shell out for just a nice exhaust note..... *ergh*
Good luck quietening it down mate.
um...the power getter is meant to be of the of quiet exhuasts
but anyway, i use to run a silencer in my 5zigen and it was almost as quiet as stock..but it reduced the power (you can feel it)
but having to remove the silencer in and out is a real pain in the ass!..
good luck
yeah, thats interesting, the Fuji's are usually the quiet exhausts. The power getter rs is louder than the Rm01A though.
Is it stainless or mild steel? cos all the new ones are stainless and i *believe* are actually quieter than the old mild steel ones, as the old ones came with a removable silencer where the new stainless steel ones didnt.

Geez, that's gonna make me think twice about getting the Fuji!
Hope everything turns out alright :)
I don't think you can go wrong with a Fuji. They are probably one of the best Jap exhausts out there.
Yeah, there's absolutely no doubt that they're top stuff.Quote:

I don't see the point in buying an exhaust if you are going to drive around with the silencer on. The power with our full Miracle fireball and 5 zigen headers and the silencer put in goes back to about standard......
Needless to say the silencer has only been put on once for 2 days and has never gone back on.............. orders from the missus too!! :o
would changing the front pipe/cat affect the noise much?....
Fuji is not very LOUD, at least for me :D
But since yesterday, when i installed the exhaust, my sis which actually owns 70% of the car had nagged me a QUAD-ZILLION times to change it back to stock :( (There goes my $300 on custom fitting to a coupe)
Since i had already paid for the exhaust and the custom workmanship, i am really hopping to keep it as it look MAD.
Anybody know if i would to put a silencer and replace just the high flow cat to the original cat, will it sound close to the stock at least (But retaining a better exhaust flow comparing to the stock system)? PLEASE HELP ME! :oops:
