Hey guys, I just got my catback system...it's pretty nice but it's very loud even with the silencer. I was wondering if there is any other way to make it more quiet? Did anyone here that had a loud muffler find a way to make it more quiet?

You can deepen the tone (make it sound quieter) by adding another resonator.
The longer the resonator the deeper the tone will be.

sorta what i did. My piping didn't come with a resonator and i got one (it's fucking huge and i don't know what kind it is), it got rid of the raspyness and made a little quieter i guess. It seems to get louder when its cold out thoguh, unless its just me.

A good quality muffler will take care of that too. But if you like your muffler, just do what pdigg said

Are there any other alternatives? Hayame gave me a free resonator, so the sound is pretty deep already.

Now sometimes I wish I had 200$ more to get those quieter 5-Zigen catbacks...but whatever...this Hayame set is pretty good.

You could always put a different muffler on the end too.
(Which is what I did to my thermal.......too bad the damn thing is still in the box
