Hello. I just had a new exhaust installed on my '96 2.4L Sunfire. I installed a Magnaflow 2 1/4" catalytic converter with 2 1/4" piping back to my Magnaflow Muffler. I'm not sure exacly what muffler it is since it was on the car when I bought it, but it is round, straighthrough with a 4" tip. Now, I am very happy with the way my exhaust sounds after the installation. It has a lower tone than with just the muffler, and driving around with it for a day it sounds great. That is, except when I accelerate too quickly or get up in rpms. Sometimes when I do this my muffler makes this wierd noise... the only way I can describe it is like a "tear". I was just wondering if anyone knew why it does this... and if the problem is with my muffler or something else. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks alot.

dude i'm clueless. are you talking about a buzzing sound or what?

i have a 97 cavi 2.4 with the same setup except I have a Ractive muffler. I just had it installed and it is great except when you get on the gas. It sounds like a weedeater. I was told to get a 20+ inch resonator and that would fix it.


hugs and hand pounds, peace

the longer the resonator, the quieter and the deeper. about a 16 to 20 inch resonator will make your exhaust very deep, quiet, and no bumble bees / buzzing / rice or whatever you wanna call it.

Yea, I guess it is like a weedwacker. Any suggestion on what type of resonator?
