mand3j Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 ive got a cobb turbo back with stock cans, the car is pro tuned and I can't stand the popping noise when I let off heavy throttle. Will a resonator stop or seriously reduce the popping? anyone?
rao Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 No, it won't What exactly do you mean by "popping" Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT
whitetiger Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 get aftermarket cans and then the pop will sound good.

trademark Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 I thought Equal Length Headers would fix that.. or maybe I'm wrong..
mand3j Posted April 18, 2008 Author Posted April 18, 2008 have the pro-tuner adjust your tip-in and FIBET tables adjust the whosit and wachamacallit.. Got it... Can anybody clue me in as to what "tip-in" and FIBET are? I did comment (to the tuner) on hoping to rid the car of the "popping" through tuning. He attributed it to exhaust design. I'm having a hard time swallowing that though.
JonLGT Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 I thought Equal Length Headers would fix that.. or maybe I'm wrong.. And you think it sounds bad now...
rao Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 I watched the video - nice hat The good news is there is nothing horribly wrong, the bad news is that your exhaust is loud Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT
BoxerGT2.5 Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 That's mild exhaust tone. OBAMA......One Big Ass Mistake America!
rao Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Compared to yours it is Your car better run 11s's to sound like that Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT
BoxerGT2.5 Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Compared to yours it is Your car better run 11s's to sound like that I don't know what it runs, but I know Honda Fit has nothing on me once I get above 4000rpm. OBAMA......One Big Ass Mistake America!
rao Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 At least the Honda expects a car to sound like that Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT
Mr. Ed Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 He attributed it to exhaust design. I'm having a hard time swallowing that though. it's truth.... and the answer is actually yes...with the right resonator you will drasticall absorb the popping noise... have you removed your stock res? I'd say install at least an 18" magnaflow resonator in there.... it will absorb most of that popping. I have the same issue...but enjoy it...
rao Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 I wouldn't bet on a resonator solving the problem. Fortunately it is pretty easy to find out Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT
fweasel Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 I have a cobb DP with HFC and a catback exhaust with no popping off throttle. I had always been under the impression it occurred with catless DP's and or rich off throttle conditions. ignore him, he'll go away.
mand3j Posted April 19, 2008 Author Posted April 19, 2008 im wondering if dropping from the large dia y pipe to stock exhausts is doing it
mccorry Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Nope ... mine does it with stock cat back (w/ muffler deletes).
fweasel Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 im wondering if dropping from the large dia y pipe to stock exhausts is doing it That's what Rao is running and I don't recall hearing his car pop ignore him, he'll go away.
mand3j Posted April 20, 2008 Author Posted April 20, 2008 i guess i'll bring it to a muffler shop and see what they have to say.
jarrod Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 would a resonator help raspiness any? as in raspy sounding when accelerating?
