Flowmaster exhaust without resonator - Nissan Murano

MIDNIGHTBLUMO · 06-09-2012, 12:19 AM

I recently had the resonator removed on my 04 SL (I had the flowmaster installed a couple of months ago). Without the resonator it sounds exactly like the FX, especially on tunnels and parking garages but at 2000 rpm it gets very loud like a ricer.

Who currently has or has had the flowmaster without resonator, do you like the sound? Do you think it sounds like a ricer? or did you had the resonator welded back?

I dont have a flowmaster, but I do have the Spectre cone filter set up on my baby, and yes, I have removed my resonator. I just love it...

Umm I think the OP is talking about his exhaust lol.

Thanks for the info midnightblumo, I was curious how mine would sound with a flowmaster and resonator chopped off. Im kinda thinking im keeping the resonator at least.

Oops, mybad. Lol. Talking about output, not input

There's some videos on YouTube which had me take the plunge.

I put on the Series 80 and tried it first just like that but it was pretty tame so I had them remove my resonator too. Sounds pretty sweet. Not too loud.

I would never go back now.

I think it's kind of odd you guys have chosen to go with an American brand muffler company with a Japanese vehicle. Don't you think it would make more sense to go with a brand used on the similar fx35/350/g35? Just my 2 cents but it doesn't make sense to me why you would use something intended for a Camaro.

If anyone has used any other brand exhausts please chime in, i'm interested in performance gains and how driving is for long durations.

The Flowmaster is a universal muffler that can be used for any vehicle where as most Japanese exhaust systems are vehicle specific and can cost a lot more money if it's made specifically for our cars.
