Exhaust 'mid box'

[pj]

Any brus here have had an exhaust 'mid box' (pse excuse my spelling if i'm wrong) installed? Wat's the gain and the rough cost of it? My ride is an E36 320 and I'm currently on Hiop headers and SS muffler. Thx!

Re: Exhaust 'mid box'

never heard of a mid box. are you talking about a catalytic converter? or more specifically a racing cat?

I have a slightly bigger mid box installed to tone down the rear remus.. no diff in handling felt, just softer tone and volume from the exhaust.

Hi,

I think you are refering to the resonator. This is usually designed to remove certain frequency which will 'peak' out if not removed. Changing it to a 'more free-flow type' will indeed help especially the high end if your system is already tuned-up.

I tried to replace mine with a 330 type and it helps. Gain wise, probably you can fee it, but only at mid to high rpm.

Hope this help.

The gain by changing mid-box is feelable. Plus the fact that u already have a SS Muffler. But do rem to save up for other more impt things.
