Best Exhaust resonator...

I'm looking to get a better and longer resonator for my exhaust to quiet it down. Any reccomendations on which ones are best and whats the longest resonator we can fit on our Bpipe?

Right now I have an ok 16" resonator on there (I actually think its a glasspack), but im looking to replace it with a longer and better one to make it more quiet.

That one made the Magnaflow strait threw muffler barable on my buds max.

He had a 36" glasspack on their so this one should fit:

So it still being a glasspack, it made a big difference in noise levels? I Really want to quiet it down so its not so loud inside the cabin and quiter on the outside.

He had a lourerd core glasspack. This is perforted core and it made a HUGE difference. Alot of the droning went away.
What muffler do you have?

Dynomax Super Turbo, everything is 2.5". I think my glass pack might be lourerd, cause it still drones like it did w/o a resonator, but it just doesnt sound AS harsh. Didnt really quiet it down much either, thats why i think they put on a cheap glass pack.

Turbopacks are VERY restictive, they have a smaller hole inside of it.

Yea im gonna go ahead and order the 28" one, that should fit nicely, plus it will do better than the little 16" one thats on there now. Probably order some exhaust wrap to wrap up the flex pipe on the ypipe.

That will make the flex rust. Get a 3ply flex off ebay, it will be quieter. I have a 2ply one and it's quiter than the Warpseed one. It is almost quiet as stock.

I will look into that, thanks for the help.

Quick question, did you go with 2.5"x6" or 2.5"x8" for the flex pipe?
