Hey, I got straight pipe, ya its loud, not fun on the highway when driving like 3 hours, so I was thinking about getting some silencer's for my muffler's I have magnaflow muffler's and their are some silencer's available for them, and I am wandering if they are actually worth it, how much do they reduce the sound, and does it sound decent or like utter crap? Thanks.

about 7-9dB usually.

 

Thanks, no one else has any other input on these things, i don't want to shell out $100 then be S.O.L...

 

I put one in along with a presilencer.

It changes the note of the exhaust too. I still think my setup is too loud for my daily driver.

It is however, quiter than my SR20's free flowing exhaust.

Is dual exhaust quiter or louder than single? Or is it mostly the manufacturer?

 

MT DUALS are not that loud. I can cruise and make them sound like the stock sound. If you floor it they it is loud.



EDIT: DUALS= Twin RB pre-silencers and two RB mufflers=nice sounding exhaust and will not make your ears hurt.



P.S. Flames RULE!!!!

 

Turn up the radio n00b

 

SILENCERS WORK BUT THEM FITTING PERFECTLY IS A MUST AND BTW WAIT TILL THE COOL TO TAKE THEM OUT BECAUSE WHEN THEY HEAT UP THEY GET LODGED IN THERE.
I GOT THE APEX SILENCER WITH MY N1

 

i have a 3" straight pipe no muffler at all, it's not too loud to me i just shift at 3k-4k when on regular streets or during the day, but i also retain stock cat and precat.

on my experiences with the silencers (apex type), it does help, but it also adds back pressure. but if you are annoyed by the sound on the highway then i suggest either getting a pre-silencer or one you can put on or remove on your tip.

 

yeah silencers work wonders. you'll be able to drive long distances without the headache. i need to get some too, but $100 for a pair of silencers is alot. shouldnt be more than $25 a piece. you might be able to buy a differnet brand silencer that is cheaper as long as it is the same size as your outlet (tip).

 

well i am in canada, so most of the prices will be almost twice as high as their are for u guys in the states. Thanks for all the input guys.

does it make the car sound shitty tho?

 

You should have paid for the optional caps lock button

 

The only silencers i heard when in sort of gave it a thinner tone, not very deep, but not raspy either. (apexi n1's)
