Is a high flow cat without a resonator or a resonated catless mid-pipe louder? Of course with the same catback.

 

Has anyone experienced both a high flow cat vs. a resonated mid pipe? Which one is quieter with the same catback?

 

Straight pipe is loud - resonator(s) can cut it nicely.

Cat or catless is a different problem.......

high flow car is nice because it's not too loud

 

the resonator on my b&b catless midpipe didn't really do squat.

if you get a muffler and have it welded into your midpipe, your results would be quite a bit different.

 

^ agreed go with High flow for less noise.

 

you are learning my young padawan, you are learning.

 

rp supercat ftw!

 

From: RP Supercat + Racing Beat REV8 = Higher Midtone Sound level 6 to: Mazsport Dual Resonated Midpipe + Modified Racing Beat REV8 = Lower DeepTone Sound Level 4.

 

in a few weeks I should have something interesting to share on this topic

 

what'd you do to modify the Rev8?

Change in Avatar! Nice red housings.

 

I know, I'm slack at getting pics up. This weekend when the Sun comes out you shall see.

 

you're gonna make us wait till Sun???

 

It's raining pretty good up here in the Real Sasquatch land - but Saturday the Sun comes out to play for a day. We missed our Summer it seems.

 

Damn You!!!

 

I teased a pic somewhere off my crappy camera phone. I'll post some hi res soon.

 

we're waiting....

 

I have the MS catback and RB race pipe and it's extremely loud. The car is mostly a track car so it works great for me. If it's a daily I'd recommend a hi-flow cat.

 

really? cause im getting the race pipe for the turboxs. right now i just have the catback on and its already too loud in my taste. although i think its pretty acceptable with the silencers put on in the tips. without those silencers though.... i feel like some punk in a civic...

holy smokes Nemesis!!!!

 

Nice Nemesis!
The more I look at it, the more I like it.
Makes the back-end look cleaner.

 

that thing is crazy!

 

looks awesome.

I wouldn't want it though. I'd be worried about the first time I go to get some pizza, it would be broken up and in pieces all over the sidewalk.

 

it definitely looks pretty low and i can see it being an issue.
