Default How to quiet Magnaflow

Hi, how quiet is a magnaflow with resinator? Are there any other parts which can be added to quiet it even further?

Thanks.

It's pretty quiet the way it is. Do you have the catback system :?:

I have a Magnaflow w/ a resonated tip, and its only a tad bit louder than the Tanabe I had on there. Since the muffler is located more so underneath the body, I hear it a bit more when its warming up in the morning.

But then again, I'm not an expert on muffflers, exhausts, or Scions, and I don't know anything.

It also depends if you have a header, CAI, and if you are an automatic scion or a manual. What set-up did you want to install on your ride? We can help you figure it out.

The next chance I get, I'll get sound readings for you at different RPMs. I have the Magnaflow mufler and resonated tip.

Of course the readings will not be under load, and should not be construed to be accurate as I have no knowledge of mufflers, exhaust sytems, or for that matter, Scions in general.

still need to know what magnaflow muffler you are talking about. Do you have a part number I could get from you?

Remember, the bigger the tip, the louder it gets. If you don't want anything that loud, make sure it has a silencer, or at least a tip that isn't any bigger than say 2.25 inches in diameter.
