Resonator question

Has anyone fitted a 3" vibrant ultra quiet resonator to their midpipe? Planning on adding a resonator to an unresonated midpipe and was debating between this or their 18" long bottle resonator.

Also, will the vibrant bottle resonator be any different from lets say a generic resonator from a muffler shop?

No idea. Try it and let us know how it works out. Take before and after sound clips too

The smaller one may be louder. Also - Location placement is critical to cancel the resonation frequency required. Bigger should be less so.

Vibrant is for racing and should be lighter, last longer.
My Vibrant mufflers and resonator have worked MUCH better than generic for me.

I have one and it eliminated the drone and rasp i had in my car. I have tomei header and exhaust system. Also used to be loud AF, now it's better. Nice deep sound.
