Default exhaust question
I just put 2 1/2 piping true daul exhaust on my sc400 no muffler and no anything, and its way too loud. My exhaust guy said to just put two 16inch resonater on it and would sound great. What's ur guys opinion?

yes, resonators will help quiet your exhaust. If that's still too loud or you don't like exhaust smell, you can also throw on a high flow cat.

On top of resonators, do you have a crossover pipe or x-pipe to balance out the exhaust pulsations from side to side?

x pipe is going on with the resonators. What's the difference from the mufflers that are straight threw to a resonator?

You should do the x pipe with resonators. It'll be quiet but loud when you open her up.
