Default How do I quiet down my Asura exhaust system

Debating on what to do, so I am going to ask all my fellow S2ki members with similar setups what they would do. Living in socal, I am trying to keep my car as sleeper as possible and not have to worry about getting pulled over and whatever else reasons. Currently have a Ptuning GTX-30r turbo kit running an Asura Design exhaust system. Could not run the Ptuning exhaust since I have the Inline Pro differential kit, would not clear diff right. Anyway, I'm looking into chopping off the Asura resonator and adding a Vibrant performance ultra quiet 3 inch resonator, maybe running 2 of them. What is everyones opinion on replacing the Asura resonator, or maybe you guys can fill me on on what kind of setups you guys have. I am trying to eliminate the drone. I like listening to my music and not the exhaust drone like I use to when I was 17, LOL. Thanks everyone.

3" vibrant ultra quiet reso does wonders. yours is still loud after going turbo? most people dont have any drone or volume after going turbo on an exhaust setup. turbo is giant muffler.

Thanks Camuman. The exhaust isn't super loud but does have drone. I've also had this exhaust for a very long time. Possibly worn packing. I just want to stay under the radar now, that's why i'm doing all this. Do you think 1 should do the trick, or 2?

I have one but my exhaust is twin loop. If there is room just do two. They kill like 3-6 db each if I remember right. And that's noticeable to the ear. I hate drone. Mine doesn't at all. My ears thank me for that.

Are your mufflers hytech? So you're thinking use 2 of them? There is room for 2 of them if i cut off the Asura resonator.

yeah i spent a shit ton of money on the hytech exhaust hoping for it to be quiet. truth is i still needed the vibrant reso and then it wasnt really quiet till i went turbo. now its great.

so frustrating. i had an asura and should have kept it as i eventually went turbo anyways lol. do you have the reso asura mid pipe? maybe use the vibrant reso as your test pipe.

I have straight pipe no cat, asura resonator. I think i'll end up with 2 vibrant resonators to replace the asura one.

added a Vibrant 3" Ultra Quiet to my Q300 dual and I'm on love. It sounds perfect, eliminated rasp and reduced drone drastically.
