has anyone modified their resonators? i heard one on you tube and loved the sound! maybe somebody can give me some info on how to do it!?
although as i have gotten a little "older"..... i am wishing i could figure out how to quiet mine down now!!! lol
as loud as my car is right now on the inside with no reso's, gutted hi-flow cats, and just a pair of wide open magnaflow mufflers in place of the suitcase, i am going to be deaf in no time!!!!
Quick, Know of anyone on here who has a clip of theirs? I'm wanting to hear just the Corsa by itself, no headers or anything modified other than what is supplied with the exhaust system. I found a few on the tube but they all have other exhaust mods too, or the videos are just corny.
Drat... That would be my car but I don't have any way to get an audio clip. It's pretty much the same as stock until you get on it. A little better note at idle. Nice turn-on bark. Very nice note and some louder at partial throttle/acceleration. It's just flat out LOUD at WOT. Not quite NASCAR but loud (and I love the note). At freeway steady speed cruising it could be a little bit quieter than stock. NO drone at any speed. ever. and as a bonus, it's made out of real stainless steel that doesn't rust like some of the other "stainless" ones. It's 2.75" all the way through, designed with/for Chrysler, and might be the only one that picks up a few HP on a stock car.
+1....I'm very happy that I did the same thing. Kooks catless mids with stock cat back. Puuurrrrr fect.
I'm not so sure about ditching the resonators either. Most everybody I've heard of doing that entered the mega-drone zone. People seemed to be much happier with ditching the muffler and leaving the resonators. Just the opinion I got from reading all the posts way back when people were experimenting with all that.
cool. i'll take that into consideration. i took everything off my diesel and i love the sound,but on long trips it will put you too sleep! i want a little better sound/performance without it being too noisy inside. how much louder is it without the mufflers? and will any of that void the warranty?! my duster is plenty loud for raising hell!
so dave, the corsa's are that good??? i have gotten tired of the nascar sound and the drone inside is killing me. i keep hearing good things about the corsa......
ok,you guys talked me into it.......leaving the resonators. i may look into muffllers or how about just taking them out?
I seem to remember someone removing the mufflers, running straight pipes from the cats to the resonators and liking it. Then again, I can't remember more than one or two people ever doing that... so I don't know.
