Need help with exhaust
Hey guys,
I currently have a 3in straight pipe setup on my 09 Cobalt SS, catless dp, muffler and resonator delete. I need to get a new exhaust system for various reasons, one with a catted dp and a muffler. No resonator. I want one that would sound obviously quieter than a straight pipe, but havee a similar sound, NOT a raspy, fart-can like sound. Any help would be appreciated with suggestions of brand. Thanks |

Hahn, turbo xs, or muffler delete seem to be the 3 that is most widely used on this forum.

Put a Magnaflow muffler on. I was in a similar situation and I was very happy with the sound after adding a Magnaflow.
|
Yeah I wasn't planning on going with the turboxs because of that.
I'm looking at the zzp catted dp and catback because I heard it comes with a magnaflow muffler basically. |
I'm sort of curious as to why you specifically don't want a resonator?
|
I dont know, I wasn't going to get one just for the sake of being louder... but maybe I should if it's gonna sound bad without one.
|
Isn't it the other way around the less resonators the louder it gets?

^^ resonators quiet down the exhaust, correct
|
Or why not just go with a catted dp try that out and see if you like the sound with the current catback you have

I would get a catted dp and a factory resonator or one from zzp.
|
My current setup does not have a muffler and I need one. I wanted to just put a muffler on the current pipe but my mechanic told me I would need a new pipe. I'll have to ask him specifically why again.
So besides being quieter would not having a resonator make it sound worse? |

You exhaust is prolly loud and raspy like a honda is. Get a stock or quality resonator and that will quiet it down and reduce the rasp. Both of turboxs louder exhaust systems only use resonators. The fl uses 2 and no muffler, and the rfl uses 1 and no muffler. You do not need a muffler but you at least need a resonator

I got the zzp full stainless exhaust with the 200 cell catted dp and I love it. Do you need it for emissions?

I would personally go with a turbo XS there 2 resonator FL exhaust really sounds great and the next step down if a muffler less exhaust is too loud.
Friend of mine has a catted DP and a Hahn exhaust with muffler and NO resonator, sounds like CRAP! Trust me, get a resonator...Please Nissan 350z is the only car ive ever heard sound good without one (and v8's of course) every other 4cyl sounds bad without one. Look at a Neon SRT4 stock it has 2 resonators and no mufflers! |
