    IDEAS? replaced flowmaster with an Ansa, now its too quiet

    Current setup: S52 exhaust manifolds, S50 downpipes with OEM cats and resonators into a M20B25 dual in & out stock piping that leads to an Ansa muffler. The previous setup was exactly the same but the Flowmaster instead of the Ansa.

    It sounded good, but was ugly and too big. I replaced it so I could weld a late model rear valence, and I love how the muffler and rear valence changed the way my car looks, but hate how quiet it is now.

    Im thinking about deleting the resonators so the whole system is exactly the same, but not sure if Im wasting my time.

      Well you could send me the muffler and I could try it on my car and tell you how it sounds. I have ebay headers with straight pipes back to a stock 325 exhaust.

        Remove the res.
        My brother's m20 has a stock exhaust system with the last resonator removed and it sounds wonderful. I'm assuming an Ansa is similar sizing to stock m20 exhausts.
