ffs is on a distinguished road
Will larger resonators and mufflers reduce sound and give a better tone? I'm not talking about inlet/outlet diameter, but the case length/diameter.

Was thinking about going with a 2.25" inlet/outlet catback. the stock setup has my resonator in front of the cat.

i might not need a new cat. was thinking the new build going like this (starting from front to back of the car)

2" cat -> 2.25" resonator (Vibrant, 15.5" case length, 3.5" case diameter)/piping -> 2.25" muffler (MagnaFlow, round, 22" case length, 4" case diameter)


this seems like a reasonable build for a ~150hp 4 cylinder...to me at least. Plus the 2.25" leaves some room for future hp increases (if that even happens, ha.)


would like to hear feedback, as i am a "noob" with exhaust designs. i'm trying to achieve the best sound while still having as much performance as possible. I really don't want a high-pitched weedwhacker as my exhaust note.
