Anyway to silence or adjust a exhaust ?

[Accord07]

Well, I finally got my exhaust on...and it is TOOO LOUD !!!!

They are dual exhaust....and its not a fart can...but def. sounds JUST like one. Is there any way to quiet it down a little ? adding something etc etc ?

I'm all about the hushpower II from Flowmaster. I have one and love it! I have the shorty, but the bigger you go, the quieter it'll be I'm sure.

i added a resonator to my exhaust. took out all the rasp and made it nice and quite when driving half way normal and a nice deep tone when i get on it. i think my intake almost completely drowns out the exhaust.

Buy the longest and/or largest resonator that will fit and install it. Or buy a new exhaust.

You should be able to fit an 18" resonator, but that will give you a deeper tone. It will not quiet down the exhaust, that has to do with the piping size and muffler.

The larger the piping size, the louder. A straight through muffler will not quiet down the exhaust much, but flows better. A true muffler that quiets down will be offset inlet/outlet.

DD Red Accord:

Kamikaze 4-1 header to 2.5" inlet/outlet high-flow Catco cat., 2.5" exhaust piping with 18" Magnaflow resonator, OBX straight-thru dual-tip muffler. It is a nice deep tone, no raspiness, but is at my toleration limit for HWY cruising (3200 RPM, 5th gear, 80 MPH) any louder and it would be very annoying. I still manage to have conversations with others/my wife in the car.

Project White Accord:

Bisimoto header to 3" inlet/outlet high-flow seamless cat., 3" exhaust piping, 15" & 22" resonators, Magnaflow straight-thru dual-tip muffler. Deeper tone and more aggressive tone compared to DD Red Accord, but significantly louder. At HWY cruising (3800 RPM, 5th gear, 80 MPH) it is far too loud to carry any conversations. I want to retain performance/high-flow on this setup and may keep it as-is. However, if I did change I would probably change the muffler to a Dynomax offset type and an exhaust cut-out/dump setup.

make a custom silencer like i did. i have straight 2.5 pipe>cherry bomb glasspack>my custom little silencer. sounds slightly louder than stock exhaust. seriously.

i went through lots of different mufflers and they were all either too loud or too restrictive and heavy...... and then i realized that i can make my own muffler/silencer that only weighs 2lbs, costs $10, and works better than any aftermarket muffler.
and another benefit is you can actually tune your sound by altering its length.
i think there is a pic of it somewhere in my civic thread

When i first installed my Magnaflow Street Series muffler it was LOUD as hell. I already had two resonators on there from before b/c i just removed my greddy evo2 muffler. Well what i did was i removed the second resonator and replaced it w/ a glasspack (18") and it quieted it down tremendously. Also eliminated all rasp i got. There's a vid clip in my MR thread if you want to hear what it sounds like. Thats w/ my F22 engine though, I've got an H22 now. Its louder but not obnoxiously loud.

[carps_accord]

a resonator is about the only way i can think to hush it...you could also get muffler caps but if yours isnt a fart can, then i dont know what to tell you


ive got a thrush turbo muffler on my cb and it sounds awesome....a $50 muffler that sounds better then most magnaflow or flowmaster etc..is great try it out if you dont believe me..in the future ill get a sound clip

[Accord07]

Well....what if i only put the stock muffler back on ? Will it quiet it down ?

here is a video of how mine sounds -

Telle me what yall think !?

[wed3k]

uhhh, thats not loud at all.

[Brandoncb7]

Yeah that's not really that loud. Is this the first aftermarket exhaust you've ever had on a car?

[jmolina]

^^^^^not loud at all, you should hear mine
my brother can hear me coming from a mile away,

add a resonator, should quiet down a bit, or get a 2005 accord muffler on,

Also, check for leaks in your exhaust. If a pipe is cracked or a connection is loose, it'll scream.

[carps_accord]

the flexpipe probably has a leak
