Default Exhaust Question

A couple of months ago I put on a Gibson one in/two out muffler. I hate to say it but its to loud, is there anything that between that and a stock muffler?

I am getting an exhaust installed on Monday from MBRP. I can't speak from experience, but having done a lot of reading on here there are two things you can do with your existing set up to tone it down.

1. Hushpower resonator. Kinda like having a muffler, on a muffler, but from reading on their website it looks pretty convincing, and a few people on here are happy with that route.

2. A glasspack resonator, I think a 30 inch long one to make a difference.

Either way, talk to a muffler shop. They can help you out.

Tom - As Horrocks already stated. The Hushpower us supposed to do the job. I have the Off Road MBRP and felt the same way. I called up David at Northridge and that is what he suggested. I didn't actually do it. I decided that the muffler being directly under my driver side back seat was just to darned loud for me (wife ) and went back to my stock exhaust. If you ordered your from Northridge, give them a call. He is extremely helpful.

Stock sounds like........ Most of aftermarket try to sound like Hemi or V8. So may be you should just go back to stock if you dont like sound....
