BeachQuest Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Yeah I know but are they beneficial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistapickles Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I have straight pipe 3" turbo back with two 12" resonators... When my car is idling in the garage it shakes pictures on the walls in the house...deep, but not that loud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
