Muffler/Resonator in place of test pipe

Cops are going crazy in my area writing loud exhaust tickets right and left!
Over the weekend I built a new test pipe that includes a 3" Magnaflow muffler to try and tone my exhaust note down some:


This change made a noticable differance for the better!

Tonight I'm going to fix the 2.5" "neck-down" on the end of my HKS catback (circled in red). My HKS catback has an integrated resonator that I think I'll also replace with a 2nd longer Magnaflow.

im running an ams resonator on an ams tbe. my brother has an ams tbe with a test pipe. there is a huge difference in our exhaust sounds, especially at cruising speeds. it is still fairly noticeable though.

before i had a buschur tbe with a high flow cat. that thing was so quiet until you got on it. cruising speeds sounded like a stock exhaust. the guy i sold it to did the same thing to an older buschur with two magnaflows.

that thread he made has some sound clips with two magnaflows.

Don't hack up the HKS. Sell it for more and buy a cheapo ebay TBE kit for $100 (Catback+test+dp) to hack up. Just trying to be frugal here!
