Hey guys, I have a 5th gen muffler on hands from a friend and I was thinking to put it on with a removed resonator from stock b-pipe, basically make a straight pipe. I have a Warpspeed y pipe and hacked air box. Do you have any idea if this will be loud or not, how would be the sound? Any opinions are WELCOME!Thank you.

 

hacked air box y pipe remove resonator and 5th gen muffler it wont really be much louder. there will be a difference in the sound but it wont be extremely loud

 

Your b-pipe has a resonater?

 

It wont be loud, but that's subject of opinion, and this is coming from a 5.5genner who has ONLY headers and hates exhaust noise.

I would leave the resonator ... but again, another opinionated thread... so let mother earth chime in and contribute to yet another pointless thread IMO

 

All stock units do.

 

uhmmmm... It goes.

Manifolds -> B-pipe (aftermarket is a y-pipe) -> Cat -> tail pipe (resonater on the tail pipe) Muffler.

 

ok... we refer to "B" pipe ase the piece between the cat and rear muffler.

And most stock "B" pipes in your world have pre cats....not resonators.

I've heard of "F" pipe, but most commonly in the 4th gen areana, we refer to y-pipes as y-pipes, stock or not and b pipes as what the first sentence of my post stated.

 

to what NMex said...

calling a y-pipe a b-pipe is

 

So the song goes.....manifold-> y pipe-cat-> b pipe-> muffler

 

Thanks for the answers, anyone have unresonated b-pipe with a stock muffler even though without the y pipe?

 

So the title to this thread...err song, is actually not in correct order ...
...............................

 

Order is not important in this case, what important is the sound....

 

But in your original post, you were asking about a y-pipe The reason i bring this up is because the y-pipe in itself is the ultimate noise maker in these cars, and if you eliminate that, then you'd be fine with essentially any exhaust combination(minus the y-pipe) and it still wont be much more noticeable than stock, as far as noise is concenred.. .

Stick to one topic.

 

I got a stock y pipe, stock b pipe, no resonator and magnaflow muffler. It has an even and very low sound. It is not loud at all...that is until I rev it up. Basically people say it sounds like a muscle car.

 

Muscle car ...

 

people people people.
y pipe - resonator + any muffler = ****.

 

.. And I'm sure like me, he talks from experience...

 

you crazy crazy newbs and your crazy newb friends...

 

Good one
