Mbrp exhaust
I got a 2018 Camaro v6 with MBRP QUAD TIP AXLE-BACK EXHAUST and it sounds good and a good loud, but you think i should do a resonator delete with an x pipe? Not sure if it would sound better, I’m just back and fourth if i should keep the exhaust as is or do the resonator delete with a X pipe. Thanks !

From what I've heard the x-pipe will make it a little quieter, and possibly a tad less raspy like

Like mentioned above it takes out some of that raspy/tinny sound, but at the cost of a little volume. I honestly thought about doing this in addition to my Flowmaster axle back, but I don't want it any quieter than it is already.

Can someone advise me to which parts you would mean I need. I just purchased a 2020 v6 Camaro 1lt. I bought the MBRP dual exhaust axle back kit. I guess I rushed buying as I don't want the raspiness. So I would like to get this x-pipe but looking at all the options I'm confused as to which one is the one I want. Can someone advise me? Thank you

I just had the MBRP axle back done and at idle its slightly louder. Better sound on acceleration and at higher speeds its loud. Still raspy and I want to get rid of that so I'm tempted to have the x-pipe installed. I have too add I purchased my car used and the engine blew. Long story short they installed a new motor but I have felt as if this motor sounds different. Much more tinny. I feel the first motor was deeper in sound. Can anyone say what would make the vehicle sound different. Only thing i know changed was the motor.

Nothing that I'm aware. I bought the car from a Chevrolet dealer over 200 miles away. Day I drove it home from purchase the engine spun the main bearing. Being warrantied completely I took it to a local Chevy Dealer whom I know and trust. But other than driving it home didn't have it long enough to go over in detail. They had it about three weeks and got it back. But upon getting it back noticed what I hear is a much different sound coming from the car more tinny or raspy. Yes I added the MBRP to the car. But now it just seems a louder tinny sound. Not what I remember driving home with it when purchased. I had hoped adding the MBRP it would've made the sound deeper. But it has not. So I'm wondering if they might have changed the exhaust manifold to something different with the engine swap or maybe the previous owner changed the throttle body and that made the system sound deeper.

I'd first make sure nothing was changed on the exhaust. If that's not the issue the only thing that's off the top of my head is maybe the sound tube on the intake is missing the foam piece that reduces harsher type noises. You can easily check that

When you say make sure both were changed...you mean the exhaust manifold?
Sound tube on the intake is missing the foam piece that reduces harsher type noises...sorry what is that? |
