    Default How do I make my LS1 sound quieter?

    strange request I know

    it has extractors, dual SS cats, dual 2.5" catback

    what can i stick into it to quiet it down a bit? like a resonator?

    it's gets really loud over 3,000

    Sounds pretty good.
    If you want it quieter replace the mufflers.

    Ebay some Edlebrock mufflers. $250 a pop but sound excellent. You'll get that really nice note but at 2/3 the volume.

    We have 3 kids between us and our Senator doesn't have any mufflers at all. It is really loud, the kids love it, we love it, we don't go stupid so we have never been looked at by the police. And it is my partners daily at the moment while her car is having a tidy up.

    Cool story bro .

    Tony, do you want any noise at all?
    If you're looking to do it on the cheap, you're better off getting a standard system. I canget a standard HSV system for you if you like. PM me if you're keen.

    Tony know its a long shot noticed you are in Sydney, but if you have a wagon mines got a stock exhaust on it and wouldnt mind a bit more noise. Happy to swap with cash adjustment if interested. Cheers

    I recently replaced the rear muffler on my system and it made a huge difference.
