As of now I have an OBX Header, 2.5 inch high flow cat, Moroso resonator, 2.5 inch pipes and a 2.5 inch muffler. It is loud as hell and really not enjoyable or practical. what would be the best way to quiet it down? Should I downgrade to 2.25 inch piping? Also I dont want to kill performance, whats the best thing to do?

Use the biggest resonator you can find, that fits. Also, in most cases quality name brand mufflers and resonators do a much better job on sound supression than the cheap e bay crap.
The best muffler of all is a turbo.

Everything is brand named, except the muffler which I got at Carlsle Custom Compact Nationals and sounds awesome but is LOUD. What is a QUIET Muffler for my car and where to buy it?

Yean I use a vibrant 18" stainless pereforrated(spelling) core resonator it quited down my exhaust alot but still could be quieter with a none straight through muffler.

Yes officer I knew the speed limit was 50
Dynomax Super Turbo.
I live my life a 1/4 mile at a time and for those 15 seconds, I realize, I need boost.
I have a 29" resonator on my car.

I'm using a 19" magnaflow resonator, and a borla crossflow muffler, it's silent when cruising inside the car, but has a nice, pretty loud sound when you tromp on it.
15.3 @ 89.97mph, 14's on the way?

did i get it louder when you put the header on? or was the exhaust itelf that made the most of the noise.
I got the header put on, ran it header open to the muffler shop and got the 2.5 inch pipes so I dont know.
So its between the borla crossflow muffler, or, Dynomax Super Turbo. Which is quieter and where to buy, Jegs?
