Getting rid of my raspyness
I have a header, midpipe and test pipe which doesn't have a resonator on it like some do. Unfortunately I'm stuck with the midpipe and test pipe. The header I have will only bolt up to the midpipe and testpipe it came with. No other aftermarket or stock midpipe will bolt up to it.... The catback(Apex-i WS2, which is one of the quieter exhaust out there) has a resonator, but I think it's going bad because it's gotten more raspy since I first put it on.
What I want to do is put a cat and a bigger resonator on. I had my car on the lift today and did some measuring.
This is my testpipe
There's 10" of straight pipe, but are highflow cats that short? I can't put one any closer because of the o2 bung.
And the resonator on the catback
There's 24" of room, so I was thinking a 22" Magnaflow resonator would be good there, but would that really get rid of the raspyness?..I really don't want it quiet because it's not loud right now. I just want the raspyness gone. Instead of putting a 22" Magnaflow there what about just putting a highflow cat there and not having any resonators on the exhaust?

Re: Getting rid of my raspyness
check carsound/magnaflow's univeral line of cats. some are very short and should come in whatever pipe diameter you have and the prices are very good.

Re: Getting rid of my raspyness
when my h22 accord had the rice-disease (2.5'' diameter DP back, and a rice muffler) all i needed to do was slap on:
18'' Glasspack Resonator
Magnaflow exhaust
Magnaflow Cat
then it was all deep, low tone with ZERO rasp-rice shit.
