I have a question for you guys, What would a I-4 sound like with no resonater and mufflers? I am contemplating that or a full exhaust...

Do a high flow resonator and no mufflers.

What would an SVT exhaust sound like without the resonater but with the mufflers.

First: Scrapped everything from rez back and upped pipe to 2ΒΌ. Then y"d off at next to last bend and on back to 2 nice chrome angle cut with rolled edges tips. looks great but too loud.

Second: replaced rez with glasspack. Better but still to loud for me.

Third: Added mini GP's just before the tips. Now we're getting somewhere, it's much more better although I'm thinking about replacing the mid GP with a Cherry Bomb twin tube GP. They say it gives you the performance of a GP but the quite of a turbo muffler

$'s: Don't ask!

The reason there's so much ignorance is that those who have it are so eager to share it.

Engine/Tranny: Zetec MTX
Detailed list of your exhaust mod:Mystery mod, SVT exhaust, with aftermarket resonator (cant remember brand) with polished Magnaflows (were on the exhaust when I bought it) running into ~3.5" tips.
Cost/Installation Charge: <$150
Opinion: Quiet at idle. The vibrations from the (4) poly motors mounts make more noise then the exhaust puts off. Interior drone is there, especially at 3500 RPMs and when shifting. Again I believe this is due to the mounts and not the exhaust. Up into the RPMs it has somewhat of a ricey sound, but a lot deeper. Im happy with it.
Misc. Info: I doubt its going to be calling the cops to come get me, but if I was in a quiet neighborhood and someone had their windows open, they would hear me. Cant judge power differences as it was installed when I did my ATX/MTX swap.

Engine/Tranny: zetec/atx
Detailed list of exhaust or mod:Flowmaster turbo muffler installed @ local exhaust shop W/chrome down tip, all else stock.
Cost/Installation: $64 total.
Opinion: Sounds a bit louder than stock when driving normal, half thottle, a bit louder, WOT, really loud.
Misc. info:Catches people at the track by supprise everytime. When down RPMs, has a slight wine. Really good, suggested. Im about to remove the res and go w/the 2.25" piping and see what happens.
