Well let's let my other board die and start the exhaust "Fart can" discussion begin here. As some of you may know I recently installed a 35R on my car and my exhaust note went from good to terrible. With the stock turbo/manifold the Apexi N1 sounded great. Now that I have a big turbo and tubular manifold I know have a serious "Fart Can" exhaust. It is raspy and sounds like one huge fart in a coffee can. I am looking to eliminate this sound completely and wish to do it with a universal muffler. Can anyone suggest from past experience a universal muffler that will do the trick? Would a resonator take care of this or would I need a resonator and a new muffler? The external WG dump is loud enough so something nice and quiet wouldn't be bad since I have plenty of noise when that WG opens.

Thanks

 

was my advice on the last thread not good enough for you?

cause i'm not trying to toot my own horn, but what i told you WORKS........

but, i guess you are looking for another option.

 

I am just trying to see what my options are. I am going to email them right now.

Thanks

 

you won't be dissapointed. This muffler is the sh_t.

 

Is it a universal muffler?

 

I would say that using a resonator will work , but a good muffler will do the trick ! I had pretty much the same set-up you have but I use a custom muffler we had done over seas and a full 4" exhaust and I never had the need to use anything but I'm sure maybe an HKS or Greddy unit will work just as good . I ahte that fart-can sound man so I feel your pain , good luck ..

What works?

The "fart" sound is my FAVORITE sound my car makes. Is it a firecracker pop sound in between shifts?
If your exhaust sounds like a fart every second your driving, then you're talking about something different then I am.

 

yes it is.

 

AMS TBE will the do the trick.

 

The sound I am talking about is not a backfire it is a constand raspy fart sound that sounds like farting into a coffee can. To me it sounds like every car I have ever made fun of which is usually some old *** Honda with this huge fart can on the back making all kinds of noise and hardly moving. The sound is louder then life itself and I just pray for the WG to open so I don't have to here it's horror anymore.

 

I assume AMS uses the Magnaflow muffler.... It appears to be the same shape as the one I was thinking about.

 

whats wrong with a loud raspy fart?

 

Do you have an external dump? I would'nt of got something like a 35r if I wanted to be quite. The test pipe will add raspiness too. Try a muffler that is higher flowing with as many resopnators as you can. Ever since i got my 35r I drive 5miles under the speed limit because of the noise.

 

I thought it was Vibrant or something like that.

 

Ya know..... putting in a high flow cat should help quite a bit with the raspyiness and make the exhaust cleaner to boot
