Which frontpipe to reduce drone?
I know this is a topic that has probably been beat to death, but I am interested in two specific companies, and haven't been able to find much info on either.
I cant handle the drone of my TopSpeed (Evo 3 clone) catback. I already have 25sqft of Rattle Trap coming to deaden the trunk, but I am afraid it wont be enough. I am looking at ether the dual resonated HKS front pipe, or the Ark R spec with its Helmholtz resonator. Or if any other options would work better, please advise. Thanks! http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/imag...est%20pipe.JPG http://www.ft86speedfactory.com/images/33004-BT002.JPG |
I'm interested in this too. I'm still running the stock front pipe, but would like to run aftermarket with the least drone possible.
|
Nameless Front Pipe with Catalytic Converter and Helmholtz Resonator eliminated the drone from an Equal Length Header with OFT V2.0 tune
|
Ark frontpipe with Helmholtz resonator killed the drone for me when I had an N1 exhaust with UEL header
|
Getting rid of drone? Put the stock front pipe back on or switch the cat back.
|
So I bought the Ark. I'll report back asa I get it, and get it installed.

Im in the same boat with the Agency power header and exhaust, going to get the ark fp with resonator
|
My questions are:
Front pipe with resinator? Or Front pipe catted? |
I have the High flow catted nameless with Helmholtz, it definitely worked as advertised.
|
I don't understand is drone that bad on these cars? I have a full catless system and I don't get this "drone" or maybe it doesnt bother me haha!! I do know if you keep a cat in your system it will keep it alot quiter and less raspy

Hahaha yeah good point! I heard my car vs a guy with a tomie (is that how you spell it? Haha) catback today and i was surprised mine wasn't much louder at all. I do have a legit muffler I guess but still I was surprised and how loud that catback is haha! |

How much more does a cat in the FP contribute to reducing drone/rasp beyond just having a resonated FP? I've heard multiple points of view on this. |
