I was stuck for a muffler, so i put on a 40$ cdn Cherry Bomb from Canadian TIre and 3 years later it still sounds the way it did when i installed it

how would the 12a sound if I just got a header off RB, and replaced the muffler with a straight pipe?
|
I may need a resonator as well, I plan on RB header/resonator only (with pipes inbetween).
I know that doing that on my Protege will make it sound deeper than with header/straightpipes only. straight piped would make it sound like a bee/honduh |
Resonator or not,I dont think its possible to make a RB muffler sound like a bee,or any other obnoxious insect.They are so heavy and have so much packing material that they completely cancel out all high frequency sound.Ive run a RB muffler for 10 years,with almost every combo of engine and exhaust system imaginable,and Ive never had anything but mellow,muted bass come out my tailpipe.
Now any rotary with a header or even stock manifold and a straightpipe......forget about it,thats loud.Even the RB presilcencers dont do much in the way of silencing.They just dont have the volume to do much,compared to the RB mufflers. |
No its not the way to do it, lol. I have the RB muffler. I got mine for free though, haha, good friend. It's not worth it in my opinion. It's too exspensive. You could get a whole custom exhaust for probably 600. Just my opinion. I like it though. It sure looks good though with the chrome tips on a white car. Its just to exspensive.

i got my car with a cheap muffler on it im waiting for this to happen its already blown all of the packing out of it in the form of a fireball it was pretty funny i plan on getting the rb muffler next payday
|
Do you plan on keeping that muffler as a reminder to never go that cheap?
|
That muffler looks like you had a very healthy backfire. Folded seam mufflers will not hold up at all, they need to be seam welded.
