Resonators for Corsa Xtreme + Headers

[msweet]

I'm trying to find a way to get a happy medium between corsa xtreme with stock headers and corsa xtreme + longtubes.

Not sure what else is out there to reduce the volume a bit, aside from installing a resonated crossover, but that's a big gamble. I'd be disappointed if it were quieter than it is now.

The 200 cell cats should help a tiny bit vs catless, might have to go custom h/x pipe with 18" vibrant resonators

I can tell you that the resonated X-pipe really cuts into the violence and aggressiveness of the tone. I was a bit sad when I went back to it for the winter. It also cuts the volume considerably. Double X-pipe waiting patiently for the spring...

IMO I'd go with the touring axleback with longtubes rather than struggling with hacking up the Xtreme.

One of the first modifications we did was install the Ford Performance resonator delete X-Pipe.

Personally went with the Vibrant 1794s on my ARH LTH Corsa Xtreme setup. Night and day difference. More refined, start ups a little less violent, a bit cleaner but still screams if you get on her. Was concerned it might stifle it some at first but the sound has grown on me, and I don't feel as bad for giving it a little gas if someone has their windows down or near a pedestrian.

Start ups are less Violent ?
Violent start ups in the morning are awesome.
I did a 30 second video for a 4 year old boy of a friend of ours and he is "HOOKED".

Yeah before vibrants:


After vibrants:


Difference is more pronounced in person. Looking forward to dyno next week so can get a wot clip from outside the car. Keep in mind these are not cold starts those are still brutal, and this is on flex fuel which is way more tame. Straight gasoline was face melting before and now just scares women and children lol.

Got any video?

Will have a WOT vid on the dyno next week. I have one from the last dyno but that was before the resonators.

Where did you install the Vibrant resonators, between the double x-pipe and the axle-back?
Would you publish a photography?

I used this as my guide when I did them.
