a cherry bomb is a muffler that restricts, a resonator doesn't

I happen to have a Comptech Resonator that has 2.5" inlets and outlets that you can have for $35 plus shipping. Hows that for a fat ass deal? Its in pretty good shape, barely used but does have one small dent on it, which will not hinder the performance at all. Let me know if you want it.

How are cherry bombs restrictive? They are straight through. :-\

Yeah I guess they do have some cheese grade looking stuff on the inside. I just didn't think it slow the flow of air down that much.

the thrush ones from dynomax (www.summitracing.com) work alright, they are truly straight through, but will cut out the high pitch noise from your exhaust, but not really make it any quieter. If you want noise reduction, grab the Moroso Spiral Flow muffler, it's 2.5 inch and only like 12in. long. They claim a 5db reduction, which is huge. AT $50 or so, it's not that bad for that kind of reduction.
