Can resonators remove the rasp??

[Guizá]

or slighty?
I'm running a bbk o/r x pipe and a set of stainless steel magnaflow mufflers

The car is a '97 with stock manifolds fyi.

The rasp is terrible.. i was doing some research and i read that resonators can remove the rasp.

If this is true, which should i look into slp, dynomax...

You should weld small blow-thru mufflers into begining of exhaust system, place where original cats are. Then you get nice deep throyty sound.

Here's mine...

just get an h pipe, the x pipe makes the raspy sound

My high-flow-catted Bassani X-Pipe is NOT raspy at all. I chose it specifically because its not. Maybe an uncatted X-pipe is raspy, I dont know, but mine def is not.

BBK X-pipes are raspy as shit, x2 for the h-pipe or a prochamber.

Ya the stamped version of the X pipe is raspier (BBK, Basanni) than the UPR/VRS/Magnaflow/SLP design.

I know in the SHO world resonators are used all the time to help get rid of the rasp of a catless exhaust, I don't see why it wouldn't work for mustangs. I guess the raspiness of a V8 is just way better than the raspiness of a V6 so not enough people do it? Let me know how it goes though.

In your case.. i highly doubt it. The BBK o/r X is known for its raspiness. Its king for it matter of fact. Some love it.. and some hate it.

Sell the BBK for something else. A o/r H might be more of your taste also.

If you like the X sound then you need to buy a TRUE x pipe design.. something like Magnaflow i believe.

Or throw on a set of cats (shave their fur off first) and be done with it.

2 nice dynomax bullet resonators will definitely cure the raspiness.

Really? Doesn't dynomax make 4 inch resonators?

I had a bassani catted X on my car before with the bassani catback. It sounded great.....not nearly as raspy as my o/r x now. You could try the resonators, you could go H-pipe. Why dont you make a clip of your car and put it up here.

Why not just replace the mufflers with some that aren't "raspy?"

Put some cat's on it like Jasonsnake said. My 04 cobra was raspy as shit with a pro chamber h pipe with no cats on it, then I put a bbk x pipe with high flow cats and it went away.

I doubt it's the mufflers. I am about to order a set of magnaflow high flow oval cats. Should be here in a few days.. ill let you guys know the results.
