Hey, i have just ordered my new muffler... but i am a bit worried as i currently have a straight through with resonator removed, hi-flow cat and Pex rear muffler.

Now this sounds good on idle but from 2000rpm it sounds like a tin hairdryer with heaps of crackle, witch i do not like... plus if i give it some it sounds real ricey, i ant happy with it at all...

Will changing the muffler solve my problem? plus does anyone no where the crackle comes from ?

no changing the muffler wont really fix your problem, you need to put in a resinator (non fluted type ie. straight through)

cheers luke

I had the exact same problem!! Crackled like mad til around 2800rpm (Then sound sort of died)..... was pretty ricey... Anyway I got a big reso put on and it sounds much better (Although alot quieter..) Im actually thinking of getting a smaller reso put in...

Yeah defs need a resonator.

If you youtube Lukey + Magna the first hit is a guy with the same problem.

Pretty sure he was an AMC member, he just put in a fat reso.

i had a straight through pipe with just a small resi. had a realy raspy noise. oh and you had to hold your ears when you would rev it, because it would scare you haha i put a small rear muffler in. sounds so good now.

Thanks for the help and advice guys! much appreciated... :happy:
