Title: Exhaust question
Post by: docaldo on 05 August 2008, 23:42

Hey guys looking at buying a new Exhaust what is the difference between Resonated and Non-Resonated?

resonated means that the exhaust fumes are suppresed more giving a quieter exhaust note. nomn resonated means that is removed  so more of a free flow with more power and more noise from it

I would advise non res on the twin/single/hidden pipe systems and the resonated on the r32 system just for the sound!

To fit the pipes through you have no gap on the standard valance!!

£47 for V6 4motion rear valance part no in link :afro:
