Muffler to replace Resonator on Loudmouth Exhaust???

What muffler is everyone using to replace the "resonator" on a Loudmouth Exhaust?? I have read it before but now I forgot which one it was. I am doing some more mods and I want to quiet it down a little.

Thanks, Nick

I have the bullet on my car. I actually have it right where my I pipe is and my exhaust ends right after it. No pipes in the rear or anything. It sounds really good. Good luck!

Thanks, Nick

It depends how much you want to quiet it down, the longer one will quiet it down more.

You would think it would be but its not really! The main reason I changed mine is because I had an exhaust cutout right before my rear axle and it was too loud. This was with the 3'' Flowmaster catback system and the muffler in the rear of the car. Since Ive put the bullet where the I pipe is it sounds alot better and the cabin noise isnt to bad at all.

have you thought about cheap glasspack or something. i had a flowmast catback on my car when i bought it but i would always cut it off for the track so i just welded in a glasspack right after the cat and made side exhaust. so now all i have to do is un bolt it and its ready for the track. i went with a 26'' and it doesnt sound to bad. raspier that the flowmaster but louder.
