I'm not too sure if my resonator on my fujitsubo exhaust is rattling. I have to look at it today to see what it might be. It's a faint rattling sound at around 2k and it only happens some times. I was considering the idea of cutting out the resonator ( if that's what it is). I don't mind the exhaust getting louder but don't want crazy drone. I would cut it out so if it sounded bad I could get it welded back in.
I was also considering getting rid of the exhaust for the t1r 70 em single (I love the look of you single out t1r on Chris's (spoonfed) car. Kick a$$.

Ideas?

Might not be the resonator, just need to re-tighten down the exhaust.

yeah, the t1r is a nice exhaust!

ya the T1R 70R-EM is a very nice exhaust..kinda loud inside the car (well to me) so if you don't like it being loud stay with dual like Dom

it could be rattling from the spring bolts where your cat meets the header.

I checked all the bolts. Their all tight. It does sound like it's coming from the resonator. I'm going to have to check the welds. I think I might just pull the exhaust off to inspect it from all angles.

Hey Dom. You were right. It was my berk high flow cat. I put on the oem cat and rattling is gone. I already miss the hfc tho.... Sounded alot meaner. Maybe time for a test pipe. I picked up my hfc and gave it a shake, seem like all the webbing inside is loose.

Berk will take care of you...

The hfc I bought off of Steve brand new and when I tuned the car I got a bung welded into that cat. I doubt i'd get it replaced. The whole cat honeycomb is loose. Maybe just cut it all out and run it empty?

Does anyone have a test pipe I can borrow for a week or so. Wanna see how it sounds on the car and if I can tolerate the smell
