Help me Choose a Resonator, Please!
Sunday, July 31, 2005 10:05 AM
My exhuast is raspy once the car is started, but as soon as the engine warms up to about 145-150 degrees all the raspiness goes away. So I want a resonator to make it sound nice and smooth all the time.

Any advice on what to get? I thought about a magnapack, but don't know what size or where to buy it from.

Can a 30inch resonator really fit under our j-bodies? (i'm on the hunt for one myself ) I mean, when the pipe comes to the rear axle, the bends must be very sharp !

I have a 29" Resonator on my cav and they but on the flanges. A good shop should be able to get it to fit.
