Glasspack-need input!
Soon I'll be having some exhaust work done, I've been thinking u-bend delete and swapping out resonator with a glasspack (most likely Cherry Bomb). Was just looking for input from people who have had similar work done. Also, what size glasspack would work/sound/fit best? Oh, and i just have a N/A 3.8

Well here is my setup, no mufflers and resonator replaced with the glasspack. I forget the length, but I want to say 18"
|
I replaced my resonator with a 30" Magnaflow glasspack and like the way it sounds. I also replaced the downpipe, but the rest of the system is OE. Idle is slightly louder then stock with a mellow tone to it. No raspy sounding acceleration, no drone and no snap crackle pop during deceleration. If you want LOUD this set up isn't for you, but if you want a nice, mellow tone throughout the rpm range you will like it. No sound clips, but if I have some extra time in the next couple of days I'll try to get one posted.

I don't actually lol, but just a cherry bomb glasspack in where the resonator was and just plan pipe where the mufflers were.

My resonator was replaced with straight pipe, there's a high-flow catalytic converter, and I'm pretty sure my mufflers are stock. Never really thought they would be otherwise, but I'm not actually sure.... Anyways, it sounds amazing at idle and low RPMS. Sounds good with revs, but it doesn't stay super deep above 3k. Only rasps if you rev it like crazy on purpose. However, without the resonator, it reaaaallly drones inside man.

Glasspack put a really odd drone sound in mine when I replaced the resonator section. I took it out and replaced it with straight pipe for a while, but it really was a bit loud so I then instead used a Spiral Flow that was suggested to another member in another thread.
