Does anyone with experince with Magnaflow exhaust think that this idea would be too damn loud? I was thinking of doing a Dart Izumi style custom exhaust but with a Magnaflow 22" resonator.

It will be ungodly loud for the people behind you ha.I dont think it will sound that good either. Straights are kinda hit and miss.

I guess thats the bad thing, you don't know what its really going to sound like unless its been done before or do it then throw away the $$$ if it sounds like a$$.

What about 2.5" piping with single 3.5"tip. Would that mellow it out enough for N/A?

2.5 header back with class pack in the middlehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Btc1r_4imFQ

Same, but in the carhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v...lated

same exhaust, but added a glasspack with spiraled louvers instead of another perforated glass pack. It gave it a deeper tone, but lost some power http://www.youtube.com/watch?v..._page

, stock resonator, deleted baffler, shop muffler, after-market tip, all 2 1/4 piping . nice and quiet, nice growl with throttle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...lated

I now have 2.5 off a DC sport header into a 31inch thrush glasspack in the middle, then a Dynomax turbo muffler at the end, sonds good, but a little raspy, Ill get video .

^^^Thanks for the vids. The third one sounded the best IMO, but its hard to tell without actually hearing it in person .

This is the closest thing I've found as far as just a magnaflow resonator but it is a side pipe coming out in front of the rear wheel and its also KA-Thttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdkOyTLVAqc
