Lightbulb Hmmmm a resonator x pipe ????

Well just got my new issue of the wish book[summit] and scanning through the pages when I came upon pg 64at the top center Ultra flow x mufflers. I'm wondering if this could be the ticket for those of us that would like an x pipe without having to carry a bottle of advil in the car for the "drone "headache. I'm sure think it could be the ticket. Whats everyone think?

Just FYI, but Magnaflow also offers a resonator that X's inside it. I beleive they call it their "Tru-X" line or something like that. Basically the same kind of perforated glass-packed piping but they merge together inside like an x-pipe vs being two independent pipes.

So has anyone used the Dynomax Ultra-Flow X Muffler as a resonator?

Any reason why it would not be a good choice to get some benefit of an X pipe while retaining lower interior noise

It looks a little too wide to fit IMHO.

i have it on my black car . headers 3in in to the x muff then 23/4 out to 50 series flowmaster dual out let mufflers . it looks just like factory as we cut the tips off the stock exhaust. setup this way it makes good power and quiet too.

Nice!

that is what I wanted to hear. I plan on going 3" after the X muff all the way to a pair of hooker Aero-Chambers...any thoughts on those?

Did you weld on your own hangers?

Thanks
