Well...my headers and exhaust is in and it is LOUD. and stupid. Just as i thought it would be. Alright, I reallly need to get this fixed. I feel like a tard riding down the road. and i shift at 2k because if i go any higher babies cry 02.gif Someone PLEASE tell me how i can get that buzz gone. How much will a 28"+ glass pack help? Will a high flow cat quiet it down more than a glass pack? ANY help is appreciated..my car sounds retarded. My dad and girlfriend now call me 2-stroke owned.gif .

do you have any cats in now? if not, definately get one in there. then replace the resonator on the exhaust with a nice glasspack.

yeah that was the plan..but since im a little low on ca$h id like to get it quiet and then next friday ill stick in the high flow cat in (breathing is good)..would the glasspack alone get the tone down alot? what cat will fit in my car and it should replace the "test pipe" that comes with the motoria right?

a cat will nock alot of buzz out. i had the same problem with my exhaust. Put in a catco high flow cat and the buzz was cut down alot. still buzzes above 4000 but that can be solved with a glass pack. hope that helps ya out and best of luck.

IMO it doesn't really matter what to put - cat or glass pack. both things add more room in the exhaust system so that it would be quiter. I would start with a glass pack and see how it will be, after that maybe put a high-flow cat.

get the cat definately. because it will help tons with the buzz and loudness, also because we all like breathing fresh air. wink1.gif

right now on my exhaust i just have the stock cat on there. along with whatever resonator is on the exhaust stock, it sounds really good, just to loud for my taste. i have a 28" dynomax glasspack resonator that will be going on soon, and then i think it will be perfect.

should cost about 80 bucks total, and then a little extra for getting things welded at an exhaust shop.
