3" Straight Pipe TOOO Loud - snowbrd84 - 04-14-2014
I just installed a 3" straight pipe, from the turbo outlet down and out the side, just in front of the rear tire, on my 89" Wrangler with an OM617.951. It is way too loud, I park in a parking garage at work, and it is obnoxious... What would be the best way to quiet it down without restricting flow? Cant really afford to spend a whole lot more either...

Try just a resonator in the middle.

Try adding a turbo, that'll give you a less obnoxious sound. Lol. Or you can do Greazzer's resonator idea.

Turbo! More powwwa! Just don't crank the boost way up, and I'd say it'll last a long time
But wait in second thought, isn't a .951 turbo'd?

it says "straight from teh turbo outlet, so i presume he already has one there
route the exhaust backwards? or add a single muffler that is somewhat open?

That's My own fault for not thoroughly reading his post. But I have my 3" coming straight out the back of my car, and it's not very loud I don't think.
A glass pack or a resonator won't restrict flow and will quiet it down

noproblem,
with stock turbo+exhaust i would not think the stock exhaust limits your power anything worth mentioning, get something 3" size stocklooking and it will probably silence it down enough without affecting performance.

I just ordered a 3" bullet style resonator/muffler. We will see how that works out, it sounds great, but it gets old real quick with how loud it is...

Can we hear it before the muffler?

Whoops I missed that lol

haha put the muffler on yesterday and it is much quieter, sorry, did not make a video first. But just listen to an old big rig truck and thats about what it sounded like. I towed my 18' boat about 50 miles on sunday and it was pretty funny...
