Product Information

Exhaust mods can be a real hit or miss. They mostly just change the way your car sounds and that’s pretty much it. The money you’ll spend on some of these mods might not seem worth it if power gains are what you’re after.

Considering these five factors, you can be sure you’re buying the best exhaust resonator for your vehicle. While you may be able to drive without a resonator, it is a very important mechanism for your overall comfort and fuel economy. Ultimately, the answer to the question of whether you need a resonator on your car is down to personal preference, but it is greatly recommended that you do have one.The resonator is meant to create the most efficient exhaust possible. With it intact, fuel efficiency is optimized. The muffler is made with perforated tubes and it is linked to the resonator chamber through an exhaust pipe. Within the muffler, the sound is reflected, so the waves can cancel each other out. The sound waves first come from the resonator chamber if it is installed.

The resonator isn’t automatically installed on cars from the factory. There are some models that don’t have a resonator and other people that choose to remove it. If you are buying a used car, you’ll want to see if the resonator has been removed. Which One Should You Remove For A Louder Exhaust Sound?You want one that fits the vehicle you have, obviously. Be sure that the size (length and diameter) of the new resonator is going to fit with the rest of your exhaust system. Sound Quality: You want an exhaust resonator to help reduce engine noise in your vehicle without compromising performance. Look for one with a high-quality sound attenuation material, such as fiberglass or ceramic. Material. The material used on the exhaust resonator plays some role in its longevity and overall performance. If the material used in the construction is long-lasting, then the resonator is worth your investment. The material should be an excellent sound absorbent to restrict sound that comes out of the exhaust system. Also, you can opt for stainless steel resonators because they last longer and are less resistant to corrosion and rust. The build of the resonator is distinctive. It has a hollow metal chamber with holes all the way round it to allow sound to escape through. This chamber is wrapped in insulating material which will dampen the different sound frequencies, producing a more consistent sound wave. This material will be wrapped and often double-wrapped in metal to stop any sound escaping.
