July 13, 200917 yr comment_358627 Hey guys.. just a quick question.. on a std exhaust for a ke70 with a 4k it has a middle resonator and end muffler.. i took the rear muffler off and its fukn loud.. why is that?.. and i think it needs the flange gasket replace(manifold to pipe gasket).. in doing that will it quieten things up? a little bit.. cheers Report
July 13, 200917 yr comment_358648 I reckon it's loud cos you took the muffler off :y: bloody well said, excuse me Mcrackn are you a rocket scientist by any chance? because i took my fan belt off and the fan isnt spinning anymore? can you please help me?? LOL :yes: :dance: Report
July 13, 200917 yr comment_358650 haha^^ the resonator does almost nothing to quiten down the exhaust, gives it a deeper tone. replacing the flange thing wont do much either, maybe you should get a muffler you can get different size ones to make different noise levels Report

July 13, 200917 yr Author comment_358669 thankz guys.. i thought it was just that i took the muffler off.. ill prob just get a hot dog and a tip and stick it in the spot of the muffler.. it screams it tits off under full noise :dance: cheers p.s. thanks seabiscuit for sticking up for me.. i know it was a stupid question.. but it had to b asked to confirm Edited July 13, 200917 yr by JRADSTRX Report
July 13, 200917 yr comment_358697 ill prob just get a hot dog and a tip and stick it in the spot of the muffler.. A hot dog is a resonator... you want a sports (straight-thru) muffler. Can buy them at any exhaust shop. Make sure you buy one for the right size pipe! Report
July 13, 200917 yr comment_358713 goodluck finding a sports muffler for that size pipe, maybe a motorbike muffler for a 1600cc bike or something, can get them hell cheap off ebay and they actualy look quite good and most are droopy tip also this is the sort of thing I'm talking bout: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Black-Carbon-Fibre-...93%3A1|294%3A50 Report
July 13, 200917 yr comment_358722 just a suggestion, sometimes you can figure out what something does by its name a "muffler" muffles Report

July 14, 200917 yr comment_358767 if you are running a standard engine, get a triple flow rear muffler and run no bigger than a 2" tip. It will sound nice enough to get attention but will not be too loud and you won't get booked for it. You DO need to run a muffler or else it WILL be TOO loud!! Robert. Report
July 14, 200917 yr comment_358770 HAHA this is classic. Me and my mates often disconnect the flange after the resonator and cable tie the rest to the underneath of the car and go for a drive. Gets a lot of attention from the cops, especially when you go roaring past Newcaste station. :dance: Sounds like shit on full acceleration, when you are coming down a hill it pops and gurgles and sounds great. :yes: Report
July 14, 200917 yr comment_358823 traditionally you use one of the bolts to bolt the rear exhaust flange to the front flange but off centre so it isn't hooked up. makes it sound like a saddlefrigger exhaust.... not something I'd be proud of... if you want a nice sounding exhaust, run a muffler. I suppose it all depends on your definition of nice though. Robert. Report
July 14, 200917 yr comment_358888 yeh like if you want deep droney noise get a large muffler, ive got a RO racing muffler 2" in 3" out and it sounds beautiful on hard accel, nice and quiet on cruise and has race sounding backfire when deccelerating. try find a muffler that you like then just get a few pipe bends from a exhaust place and make your own tip with a welder and a hacksaw Report
