Exhaust question
#42
I keep lagging because I'm trying to upload a damn clip, but my codec isn't up to date and so therefore I sound like an idiot telling you about countermeasures FTL.
I added a 22" perforated core resonator, into a 'splitflow' 'race' muffler.
Give me a minute to get this damn thing uploaded.

How much did that run you?
I bet much more than a HF cat...

Muffler 50$, 22" perf. $30. Install, 65$. Finished off w/ stock rear piece.
Keep in mind, I wasn't the fella complaining about price. I'm the fella that does data logging, likes to see 7100 RPM, and cannot stand raspy pop

Thats much less than I was thinking.
However, I thought perforated core resonators can hurt performace... Thats why they were not used on the Cattman.

You know what you're saying, just have the terms mixed up.
Cattman uses straight through perforated cores. And he stays away from louvered cores because they are said to hurt performance more than help in some cases.
As for price, I shop at Summit a lot.
Spiral flow thingy
23" Perf core

Thats what I was thinking about... Did you ever find out how big the cattman resonater is?
Any under car pics of the set-up?

Cattman = 22", just like the one I got. Mine is cheaper, and might 'burn out' in true glass pack fashion, but ah well, I'll probably change out my damn b set-up again.. Seems like the case diameter also plays a big role in 'mufflage'.
I play w/ my exhaust a horrendously high amount. It's sickening, well my b-pipe set-up that is. Ok, I can't figure out how in the heck to covnert this camera phone clip to anything usable. FTL

Can't beat the tone of the Cattman though, with or without headers, it just the volume and drone that got to me.

2 reasons...
1. Blended into the exhaust better instead of a bright red tube
2. allowed outside casing to last much longer than would be expected.

So whatt would be better for me to do i have to replace my cat i am in florida we dont have inspections so it would be better or cheaper for me to get 1 of hose test pipes off ebay.And are those catbacks on ebay any good i just want the pipes before the muffler ill change muffler section to a cattman later.
