I am installing a header back exhaust in my tc soon and am looking to eliminate as much rasp as possible. I currently have a Greddy EVO2 axle-back and will be adding a Megan Racing Header, s-pipe, and plan to make a custom midpipe with no cat. I am looking at installing a 30" Cherry Bomb Muffler in the midpipe to eliminate rasp. Will this work? If possible I will add more resonators. Such as 2 18" instead. I will be going with full 2.5" piping. If anyone has a sound clip of a Greddy EVO2 with header and a custom midpipe please post it. I can't find any good vids.

Just go with a 30 inch magnaflow resonator. forget the cherry bomb stuff.

Whats the cost on one of the magnaflow's? I was looking at the cherry bomb's because it's my understanding they are basically the same thing used at muffler shops as resonators. Plus I get them at cost.

Well I have a tc up in they air at work right now. It looks like I could easily fit 2 18" cherry bomb's on the midpipe with no issue. I figure 36" should eliminate any rasp. Anyone used the cherry bombs for resonators before? Or any other glasspack for that matter?

let us know how it sounds

i have the evo2 as well... and i did have the dc header but it was WAAAAAY TOO LOUD!!!
so i took the header out and with just the evo2... sounds lovely...
i missed the loudness so i ordered the megan midpipe
ill try to get vids.

btw if power is ur main concern (tho it may be a small gain) go for the header... if not, dont get it.... highly suggest u dont get header... (not sure about installing the resonators tho)
take it for what its worth = $0.02

I already bought a megan racing header. I am looking to maximize my performance with my supercharger. I know it will be loud I just don't want the rasp.

oh...how about 2 huge resonators on midpipe?

Thats what I was asking about. I want to know if anyone has used cherry bomb glasspacks as resonators and if so how well it worked.

a few question:

1) resonator is for eliminate the rasp?
2) glasspack is only for louder sound but not for eliminate the rasp?
3) double resonator or double glasspak = less HP?
4) how about a glasspack and resonator combo?

hmm... i just found this on youtube:

before glasspack



and after glasspack:

its sound better!

so.. anyone have a glasspack and resonator combo?

I bought a 40" cherry bomb glasspack and I will be installing it after I get my header and s-pipe installed. I want to make sure the fit is good when they make my midpipe. If I can find a way to record a sound clip I will.

40"???? there is no way to put a resonator next to that...
or u have a resonator already and they going to fit it somehow?

06scionsc

I bought a 40" glasspack to use as a resonator. If you buy a muffler shop resonator they are just a glasspack muffler. I will be installing my glasspack with my new custom made midpipe. It will be welded into the midpipe and take up most of the straight section of pipe.

sweet let us know if it gets rid of all the rasp

glasspack as a resonator?? i dont get it...

as i understand (wikipedia) the resonator is much better if you dont want rasp than the glasspack...
with the glasspack you gonna have deaper sound...


but yeah.. make a before and after video!!!

I got two 18" resonators put on and the car sounds GREAT!
