Power Limits Of Exhaust With Silencer

[Bsa]

As if you can't stock and most jap exhausts have a mid muffler need a offset one it fit most times

i have a middle muffler in mine and its roughly 10" L x 8" W x 5" H, if its lowered a lot you may want to stick to 4" high.

its lowered alot yeah, what brand middle muffler, i dont wanna buy some crap muffler, alot of people have different idea of whats loud and whats not, but ive seen and heard alot of skylines around and they have some nice RB sound to them without being too bad, i could barely drive it to the exhaust shops, still got a headache

Might need to raise the car i think, discovered my dump is practically touching the underbody, another job..

If you look underneath you will see a spot near the rear cradle pull out a tape and mesure what room you have then go shopping

its the standard middle muffler from an apexi N1 system.

So i got a rear muffler 3inch Xforce put on and its quite acceptable noise wise now

but the exhaust guy thinks theres a restrictor inside the hotdog resonator too, he showed me a resonator that he had and it was basically blocked on the inside with some insertion and spiraled wire around it,

he says this because he expected the car to sound alot more throaty, its suprisingly quiet,

so is this a common thing for hotdog resonators to have silencers in them on a Jap exhaust??????????

The kakimato regu06 did.

i would of never suspected this at all, looks like another thing to replace...

Does it matter what resonator you get or will a certain brand give it a better RB note?????

Looking at a MagnaFlow resonator from Rocket industries , $132 , the body is 6inch long and 6inch round, 3 1/2 inch

Would that be a good thing or not?

As long as it is 3.5inch through with no restriction it will be fine. The worst part about the restrictor in the resi its not something you can really check unless you chop it off and by that time you might aswell change it if you've chopped it off.
