Smoothing out my exhaust

mystk96 · October 25th, 2011, 12:04 AM

recently me and the lady put kooks l/ts kooks o/r x and a slp lm1 catback

sounds good on start up and at full throttle but not so much in the mid range during acceleration (average acceleration)

it is an auto

so my question is how or are there ways to smooth out the exhaust note basically tone down some of the poppy raspyness with it being a auto

i.e. maybe cats for the car

Your best bet is to remove the LM1 resonator. There are some mufflers that will swap right in place. The LM2 would help some.
